About the tutorial, I'm not sure... you should look at the user guide,
it almost all the information you need.
Regarding the connections, you could do it using HTTP (look for the http
generic connector on the CVS kannel version). Of course, you will need
your operators to provide you with HTTP interfaces.

Hi,
Ref. To below emails and their respective replies about SMPP Linux scripts, if
we have no SMPP provider then ? Due to some issues all the 5 mobile operators
have turned down the requests for SMPP connection in our country, what else can
be done ? Pls. Advise.
Which is the best step-by-step tutorial available on net which can guide and help to deploy SMS gateway using Kannel ?
Awaiting reply.

Subject: Re: SMPP Linux Scripts
I forgot to mention. SMPP connections require an active daemon
sending/receiving live signals (pings or PDUs). This means your system
must be up and running 100% of the time connected to your bulk sms
provider, even if no one is sending messages through your websites.
That's why Kannel is the best way to do it. It is a very stable daemon.
I'm not sure about those Perl and Php solutions, but they don't look
like ready-for-production daemons, it looks to me that those are more
like API's you can use to build your own thing.
I think the PHP program you got needs to be executed rather than ran on
a web server. Some people use PHP to build stuff like that and they
should be punished :)

Hi,
I need to send SMS from websites.
I moved from a "Kannel + GSM" system to a Bulk SMS provider system due
to increasing volumes.
I am not targeting BulkSMS provider URL instead of Kannel machine web
URL.
The problem is that I need a SMPP bind to BulkSMS provider to get
Delivery reports and feeds MySQL.
I suppose that running Kannel only for that purpose is not the best way.
I found 2 ways that can fit my needs but still not succeed :
- Perl Net:SMPP
http://search.cpan.org/~sampo/Net-SMPP-1.11/SMPP.pm
Even I suppose it is the best way. I am not familliar with perl and
don't know how to proceed to cron that on my linux server.
- Lightweight PHP SMPP API
https://sourceforge.net/projects/phpsmppapi/
I tried to run the exemples but no results (blank page)
Please help if you are using such a system or advise if not. Other
script or exemples are welcome too.
Thanks for your help.
