IAXmodem should work with any IAX2-supporting PBX or telephony switch.  
As far as I'm aware that only currently includes Asterisk, OpenPBX, and 
Freeswitch.  I use Asterisk at the moment, however... although I keep a 
watch on things with OpenPBX and Freeswitch, and sometimes consult with 
the developers there with respect to all things fax.

As for faxing software, I use HylaFAX, and so IAXmodem works on HylaFAX, 
of course.  IAXmodem is intended to work with any Class 1 fax software 
that will run on the same system as it, and so, in theory IAXmodem could 
work with efax (http://www.cce.com/efax/) or any number of commercial 
fax softwares (that support Class 1).  Initial reports with efax 
compatibility were not good, but it was just one report.
