i know udev rule is not reliable, because its executed at boot time
again,
parse the dmesg each time you start/stop kannel , reset proper simlink
and use cronted monitoring script to check the kannel state and according to
the state to use the start/stop srcipt

Thanks for you immediate reply.
So you are saying that I should detect the device name and change the
device name in the kannel config accordingly?
I've tried to write a udev rule to map the usb port to use the port name
"/dev/GSMMODEM". It works well at first. When I unplug the modem, and
replug it in, Kannel stop working. When I restart the kannel service, I
receive a kernel failure notification. Any suggestions again?
