Re: [SLUG] linux sms gateway server

The external interface could be simple HTTP, SOAP, other forms of XML over HTTP, or even SMPP. In our case, we provide an XML interface over HTTP. You send MT ( mobile-terminating ) messages to us by calling a specific HTTP URL, we send MO ( mobile-originating ) messages to you by also calling a HTTP URL at your end. We can also send SMSC and handset delivery receipts to you by calling a HTTP URL at your end. We send and receive messages to and from the carriers via SMPP, ( except for Telstra premium which uses XML ). The idea is that, by using XML over HTTP, you do not have to worry about how we send and receive messages to / from the carriers. We'll take care of that. Besides, other carriers in other countries uses an entirely different protocol. If you do not want XML over HTTP, then we can provide a simply HTTP GET / POST interface that we can agree on.

Re: [SLUG] Sun hardware query

I believe at the booting and no presence of video device it will allow console usage via serial. Yes. done that from T1, E3500, E220R and Fire 280R. The Sun T1s here have RJ-45 for serial A and B. The E3500, E220 and Fire 280R have a serial 25-pin. You'll need some special connector to hook it into your PC is that's what you want. Or get a terminal console ( we have a Nortel Annex here, which also have RJ-45 connectors ) and attach all your sun equipment there. If you want, you can also attach your headless x86 hosts to it ... although you wont get BIOS messages not like the SPARC hardware where you'll see all console messages, including openboot messages. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
Re: [SLUG] Group Calendaring Application
Anyone tried Novell's SUSE LINUX Openexchange Server ? http://www.novell.com/products/openexchange/screenshots.html On Thursday 21 April 2005 13:42, Edwin Humphries wrote: A small customer for whom we're installing a Linux server wants to use Outlook for Group Calendaring (only) - for this some other person has advised an Exchange server. One alternative we have looked at is Scalix, but I think it's overkill for Group Calendaring only - and it's quite expensive for 5 - 10 users. They are a cleaning company that needs to coordinate staff to different types of jobs: episodic, major contract, project, and apply tasks at intervals of one or several days, weeks, and months. Personally, I would prefer to have them do calendaring another way, and I'm looking at Mozilla Calendar/Sunbird on Firefox - or even Thunderbird. But are there any other solutions that anyone knows of that will do this job well? Regards, Edwin Humphries Mobile: 0419 233 051 Ironstone Technology Pty Ltd P. O.

[SLUG] Connecting to a CheckPoint FW-1
Anyone here connects to a data centre managed by Hostworks ... which runs CheckPoint FW-1 ? The CheckPoint SecureClient software for RedHat only works with RH 7.3. The only way I could connect to our network at the Optus data centre managed by Hostworks is by running RH 7.3 as a guest OS on qemu, with the host OS as Fedora Core 3 ( or FC1 and FC2 in the past ), and then install CheckPoint SecureClient on the guest OS ( RH 7.3 ). Specify the IP of the firewall, then specify username and password. Works OK, but I cannot directly connect to the VPN from within the host OS. Thus, if I want to ssh to any of our SPARC or Dell boxes, I have to ssh first to the guest OS, and then ssh again to the intended host within the VPN. Pain ... but no other option. I had peeked at ipsec-tools and openswan, but they all seem to be site-to-site interop with CheckPoint instead of client-to-server interop with CheckPoint FW-1. Anyone with a better setup / interop than me ?

[SLUG] Optus Cable
I have been putting off broadband installation at home for more than a year now. However, this Optus promotion of $0 broadband installation and 3 or 4 months free is very tempting. Before I dip in the pool ... 1) Does anyone here use Optus Cable ? What hardware do they provide ? Does it work with 2.6 kernels ... or do you need some specific patches. I'm running Fedora Core 3 at home s well. 2) How is the service ? Do you get bumped off if you call / email technical support and tell them you use Linux ?
