"rpm -ql <package-name>" will tell you what files have been installed and where. If it's been packaged correctly, the config file is probably in /etc, with kannel.conf a likely name. The startup file is probably in /etc/rc.d/initrd, with a likely name of kannel. You will probably need to set it up to run in appropriate run levels. > Does any one have experience setting up some open source SMS server. I am > running fedora core2. It's probably time to upgrade, as FC4 is current, and FC5 in testing. -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
