Yep. smsc = http, send-url is as above. MT-SMS comes in via kannel interface, is passed to the above URL, and then the URL passes the message in the SMSC-required format to the SMSC. The problem is with the UDH and TEXT of a binary message -- it is in ASCII control characters rather than the 000BFE12... format. The SMSC-required format requires the 000bFE12 format, but I'm having trouble translating what kannel 1.3.1 hands me in the udh and text fields back to that format for sending. Why am I sending it in this manner rather than just passing it directly to the above URL correctly formatted? I have a nice system which inserts a row in a mysql DB and then submits it to kannel, which in turn tracks the delivery. I could take kannel out of the loop, but that would double my efforts, so I'm trying to make this work.
