Hi,

Thanks Nikos,  following is the relevant output from the smsbox.log file:

2009-06-14 19:48:53 [10372] [2] DEBUG: HTTP: Creating HTTPClient for
`127.0.0.1'.
2009-06-14 19:48:53 [10372] [2] DEBUG: HTTP: Created HTTPClient area
0x814add0.
2009-06-14 19:48:53 [10372] [3] INFO: smsbox: Got HTTP request
</cgi-bin/sendsms> from <127.0.0.1>
2009-06-14 19:48:53 [10372] [3] DEBUG: Status: 403 Answer: <Authorization
failed for sendsms>
2009-06-14 19:48:53 [10372] [3] DEBUG: HTTP: Destroying HTTPClient area

2009-06-14 19:48:53 [10372] [3] DEBUG: HTTP: Destroying HTTPClient for
`127.0.0.1'.

I also added the user-allowed-ip and user-deny-ip in the config files.  My
config looks like this now:

group = smsbox
bearerbox-host = localhost
sendsms-port = 10000
log-file = "/var/log/kannel/smsbox.log

group = sendsms-user
username = brendan
password = 1234
user-allow-ip = "127.0.0.1;localhost"
user-deny-ip = "*.*.*.*"




Best regards,

Brendan


Hi,

If that doesn't work, post smsbox application logs with problem, at maximum 
verbosity:

smsbox -v 0 <conffile>

BR,
Nikos

Check the username and the password for the sendsms-user, depending
the editor that you
used to set the configuration, there might be characters that are not 
printable.
