Hello,

We have a setup where we have two separate kannel instances each
binding (RX and TX) to the same two SMSCs.

Only RX Connections shown below since TX is not relevant.

Kannel1 <--- SMSC1
            |
             <---  SMSC2


Kannel2 <--- SMSC1
            |
             <---  SMSC2

In previous testing with just one Kannel, different parts of a
concatenated SMS can arrive via both SMSCs (setting smsc-id the same
for logically equivalent SMSCs allows concatenation to work correctly
in this case).

This almost certainly extends to having two kannels with this setup
(conjecture, not tested since that's a production system)..  The parts
of a concatenated SMS might arrive via 1 each of the four connections
so Kannel1 might end up with parts 1 and 3 and Kannel2 might end up
with parts 2 and 4.

We have not previously needed to use sms-combine-concatenated-mo since
there was previously no concatenated SMS support for this service.
However, we are now looking into implementing concatenated message
support and therefore are looking into options for automatic SMS
combination in the above setup.

Apart from turning off sms-combine-concatenated-mo and recombining the
parts at the backend, are there any options for supporting combining
at the kannels (somehow)?  There was a conjecture among my colleagues
that sqlbox might be a possibility.  However, after looking at the
sqlbox userguide and some of the code, I don't see anything like that.

Thanks for any pointers, or for showing where we might be going wrogn.

Gerald
