Hi Abhisek, Kannel works as an ESME (that is, a client). As an SMSC (server) you can use:
1) A real SMS service, provided by a phone operator (this will cost you money, and I suppose you don't want to spend $$$ on it) 2) Fakesmsc, which is an utility provided with Kannel, for testing the bearerbox and smsbox. It doesnt send any real messages to the outside world. or 3) a GSM phone or modem, connected to the serial/USB port of your computer. Kannel uses this phone as an SMSC and you can send and receive real SMS messages as if you were connected to a carrier service. Although I have not tested this configuration, many users have, so this is what I recommend. Best regards, Rodrigo. On 12/8/06, Abhisek Mohanty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Period. Kannel runs on Linux. It compiles and runs on other Unix systems too, such as Solaris or FreeBSD. But NOT on Windows. You can install and run a Linux "virtual machine" on top of a Windows system (such as Cygwin), and THEN, compile and run Kannel there. This is ONLY recommended for testing purposes. NOT production systems. My 2 cents. Rodrigo.
