Remote faxing using modem attached to second computer

[Ray]

I am trying to set up a small office at home. So far I
have managed to set up a wireless network between my
laptop and my desktop. The phone outlet is located near
the desktop which is in another room at the other end of
the house. I would like to be able to generate a fax
from my laptop and send it using the desktops phone
connection. I don't really want to run a phone extension
cable. I have been able to print successfully from one
to the other, and I have a printer driver which I want to
use for faxing set up on the desktop.

My wireless connection is via a Wlan cardbus.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance from Australia
