Depending on your needs but don't forget to look into things like
Clickatel and other online email2sms gateways. No real special
application or hardware needed then.

I've used smssend with some success on an optus mobile account.  It connects to 
web sms gateways (such as optuszoo) to do the job.  It can be a bit of a pain 
to get working because of this.

There are also ways to send sms via icq programatically, but it's pretty 
unreliable.

Well, there is equipment that will let your PC appear as a phone on the 
mobile phone network.  They are like modems in many ways (I don't know 
if they modulate/demodulate over analog or just transmit digitally), but 
they are not cheap, and you'd still need an account with a phone company 
and a SIM.

sms_client is one I have used previously. It is written by people in the UK

supports PDU mode).

I haven't found much thats free though.  And that which I found for
the TI28 modems, failed to operate with my R320 properly.

Its the raw protocol that runs over AX.25/other-medium between SMS
Message Centers and other devices.  It theoretically can be accessed
via a dialup modem I'm guessing, but I'd it is a immensely complicated
library.

Which actually does what I've been writing code to do!  Beh.  If only
I had found this yesterday. :) (I also admit I didn't look very hard
since writing the library didn't seem like a horidly difficult task).

One example of a program to send an SMS by AT commands is at:
http://juraj.bednar.sk/work/software/smstools/myputsms/

Matthieu, come to think of it, you may find that code useful, as it does
all the same kind of things you need - open a serial port, send commands,
wait for response (ie like 'chat').

There is a lot of software on palm-pilots for that kind of thing, which
you might find helpful.

Oh I see - you want someone to do the actual coding for you?
Actually its a shell-script wrapper for a chat script.

Perhaps you thought it was complex, and didnt want to reinvent the wheel.
Looking for existing code is often a good idea. But in this case you
can plainly see that it is trivial. To quote from Craig Southeren:

/usr/sbin/chat -v <$DEV > $DEV REPORT CONNECT ABORT BUSY ABORT 'NO
DIALTONE' ABORT 'NO CARRIER' '' ATZ OK "\\dATDT${SMS_NUMBER}" CONNECT ''
'QUIT)' "$TARGET\\n" "KEY" "$MSG" "BEING SENT" "ATH" > $DEV < $DEV

ie dialup, then send two lines of text: the number, and message. Its
mind-bogglingly trivial.

I'm currently working on a C implementation to handle ETS 300 916 (GSM
07.07 v5.9.1 - AT command set for GSM Mobile Equipment) and TS 100
585 (GSM 07.05 v7.0.1 - Equipment Interface for SMS and CBS) in my
spare time, so I can get linux to interact with my Ericsson phone.
If/when I've eventually finished this, you may find it of some use
since I will have some code to handle SMS TPDUs (I already have some
code to handle GSM string encoding).

>From what I've seen of GSM 03.39, it is outside the operational domain
for most users, consquentially there is unlikely to be a free
implementation of it yet.  [However, if there is free implementations
of this stuff, can somebody *please* point me at them :)]

One of the most common methods for generating SMS traffic from
land-line is by communicating with a TAP gateway - I have personally
used Vodafone and Telstra's services, and I'm fairly sure that Optus
also provides a similar service.  For this purpose, sms-client is
ideal.

Hi,

There's heaps of software on freshmeat.net that you could look at - one that
comes to mind that I've used before is qpage. Hylafax also provides

I do not know the specific numbers however if you work it out you are 
paying for a connection to a mobile phone number so you are paying for 
the SMS message through dialing the number.

I know Telstra has a similar set up that we use at work,  a modem 
attached to a Unix box that dials up when Big Brother flags an error.

Well I setup qpage and send some messages to my Optus number, they were
accepted but have not been delivered yet, 20 minutes later. Anyone know if
this service works for Optus numbers as well as Tel$tra? Or is there a

$qpage -d -i paul testing

23 seconds: modem connection
29 seconds: TAP exchange completed. Message sent
35 seconds: Mobile phone rings.

Note, these times are accurate to within a couple of seconds.

The time is affected by: 
 - Busy TAP phone # (shouldn't happen, but it's a possibility)
 - Large SMS queue
 - Lack of bandwidth to the Mobile
   I've been told by a friend working in GSM that the SMS is essentially
   unused out-of-voice-channel capacity, so if there are a lot of SMS's 
   being sent in the cell you're in, then your message can be delayed.

Bottom line: it's more than fast enough for most purposes.

Keep in mind that you need redundant alert paths if you *really* 
want to be sure you get notified. The requirements for a system that'll
tell you "the server's on fire!" are somewhat different to one that
sends traffic on the level of "meet me 4 lunch?".

Didn't I have this conversation a while back? Or was that another

The number to call is 018018767. The password is mnmail

I believe you can send up to 3 messages in the one transmission. The
cost is that of a 10 second (give or take) call to the 018 number.

And anyone can use the service. Tel$tra get their money from the 
cost of the phone call.

Qpage. http://www.qpage.org

It's a SNPP server, which means you have it running on the machine
with the modem, then you can use SNPP clients to send message 
requests from other machines.

I've got a setup here that bounces email messages to Qpage, which
sends them SMS to my mobile. Works nicely.

If Qpage doesn't take your fancy, there are other programs that
do the same thing. Look for the TAP (or IXO) protocol, and SNPP
(Simple Network Paging Protocol)

A word of caution. This is working with the Telstra SMS system.
I don't know of the other telcos. It should work, but I haven't
tried it.

Only cost was to purchase Nokia Data Suite for a 5110 to get the serial

Easiest way is just to use Vodafone for the lot. I forget the number, but
a websearch will find it for you. They allow sending of messages to all
3 networks for the cost of the call (it's a mobile number, but given the
call is short it's only going to be cheap).

There are dozens of programs out there to send TAP (aka PET) messages,
including ones which do web->sms/pager and email->sms/pager, etc.
Telstra also have a TAP number, but I don't think vodafone do.

Re: [SLUG] SMS mesages to mobiles

2000-08-25 Thread Sean Jackson

The easiest way I found was to use an expect script (TCL plugin) and set it
up to dial the Telstra SMS number (forgotten off hand the number). You use
the expect script to connect to your modem through cu, dial the number and
send the message which we pass in on the command line. The only cost for
this is the local call.

ie ./smssend +61418123456 "Message text"

The expect script handle the connection to you  modem, dialling the number
and sending the info at the appropriate times.

Sending to Optus is a bit harder. First you have to pay to get the product
Fleet Page setup. Fleet page uses a certain protocol (TAP or something from
memory). This involves looking at the message length and calculating
checksum values, it s a little tricky and the optus staff aren't any help.

If you are interested in the expect script approach let me know and I will
send it over.
