Hi, In my config, enquire_link_interval is set to the default 30 sec and actually from observation of kannel.log, the enquire link is sent every 30 secs. I'll look out for the next time this occurs and let you know if the enquire link was being sent at the time. However, another angle to this issue: I receive incoming sms messages (meaning bearerbox has an active link to the smsc, i imagine) but then either bearerbox doesn't pass on the msg to smsbox or the smsbox process is dead and doesn't process its queue. How can i tell if bearerbox has passed the message to smsbox and also whether smsbox is processing the msg??
