Yes, exactly, when bearerbox receives DLR from your SMSC it hits url you've
specified in /cgi/sendsms?dlr_url=...

Yes, you can use any webserver (e.g. nginx / lighttpd / apache / webrick /
anything ).

dlr.php is just an example in PHP, you can use any language, just make sure
correct parameters passed to your script.

No, 13000 is the kannel bearerbox port, used for its internal
web-interface.

Alternatively you can use sqlbox with triggers or modify sqlbox source code
to remove additional webserver overhead and deal with messages in the DB.
