Hi,
Before installing Kannel I'd like to know if it is possible to use it on
a remote server with a phone plugged to my PC as an SMS gateway.
Or should I run Kannel locally and find a way to forward data (mails
notifications, bookmarks, events, XMPP-to-SMS messages, etc.) from the
server ?
The idea of using Kannel (and Mbuni) with an unilimited SMS dataplan
seems really nice, though.
obviously it is... but beware that usually any GSM service provider will have
legal regulations that restrict such "machinary usage" of their SIM cards.
As long as you can attach a GSM modem to your server (which is remote) you can
run Kannel remotely on the server and communicate via HTTP to it.
If this server is in a data center which prohibits such GSM modems (yep, some
do!), then you can do the opositve arround, let the server communicate with your
local machine that has Kannel and GSM modem running.
So, it "all depends"... like often in life ;)
