Parallel ports were/are mostly used for older printers, etc. Try using efax-gtk under Ubuntu to send a fax, if it is crucial to send a fax from within MS Windows guest, connect serial port to real Serial port on main machine, where modem is connected.
If you are absolutely sure that you have a modem por Parallel port, then maybe someone else can answer that. I am thinking of USB->Parallel converter cable, with using as USB device under guest and then installing drivers under it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net Dev2Dev email is sponsored by: Show off your parallel programming skills.
