Hi Anand, You are on the right track.... 1. CIIMW, It depends on your requirement actually. If you don't need special setting and the default setting work find for you, why have you made things difficult.
2 & 3. Absoultely yes, you could do that. You just have to write down script to store messages in or out of kannel. Kannel won't do that for you. Your script could store message out before or after invoking sendsms url. Fordelivery receipt, you could use url-dlr parameter to trigger the script that will handle the incomming DR. You could find url-dlr info on Kannel User Guide http://www.kannel.org/download/1.4.1/userguide-1.4.1/userguide.html#DELIVERY-REPORTS Hope this could help you... --tjatur On Thu, 2007-06-07 at 01:15 +0530, Anand Gupta wrote: > Hi Everyone! > > I am trying to setup kannel on debian using standard deb packages. > > My smsc is basically providing me an smpp connectivity. > > Here is what i have in kannel.conf right now > > # CORE > group = core > admin-port = 13000 > admin-password = pwd > status-password = pwd > log-file = "/var/log/kannel/kannel.log" > log-level = 0 > access-log = "/var/log/kannel/access.log" > smsbox-port = 13001 > store-file = "/var/log/kannel/kannel.store" > > > # SMSC > group = smsc > smsc = smpp > host = x.x.x.x > port = 1234 > smsc-username = "user" > smsc-password = "pass" > system-type = "SMS" > keepalive = 50 > > # SMSBOX SETUP > group = smsbox > bearerbox-host = localhost > sendsms-port = 13131 > sendsms-chars = "0123456789+" > log-file = "/var/log/kannel/smsbox.log" > log-level = 0 > access-log = "/var/log/kannel/access.log" > > > # SEND-SMS USERS > group = sendsms-user > username = sms > password = pwd > > > # SMS SERVICE 'Default' > # there should be default always > group = sms-service > keyword = default > exec = /usr/local/bin/kannel_incoming %t %q %a > > > With the above, my kannel starts up properly and log files show that > the connection to the smsc has been made. > > I have tested that kannel is sending the message also to the smsc and > the message is getting delivered to my handset also. > > lynx --dump > "http://127.0.0.1:13013/cgi-bin/sendsms?username=sms&password=pwd&to=NUMBER&text=hello&from=anand&mclass=1"; > > > Now what i wanted to know is > > 1.
