When you change the IP address on the Server, you must always restart the Server machine in order for the Mac OS to clear any record of the old IP address. Otherwise, the Fax Server may broadcast both addresses. If, after restarting the Server, you still see the old address on the Client, then this means that the Client is retaining the old address, probably because it was manually entered, rather than picked up from the Server broadcast. In this case, go to Tools menu>General preferences on the Fax Client, and click the Reset button. This resets all of the Client’s preferences to their default values, and it will clear the Client’s record of the old IP address.
