Hi,
I am new to Kannel and this whole SMS gateway thing. I am trying to learn how to integrate the LAMP system with SMS services (like sent SMS text messages in database to use with other applications). So to try out, I just installed the binary pacakge via yum from extras repo (I'm using FC5). My questions are:
1. Where is it installed by default? I am asking this question because i can use # /etc/rc.d/init.d/kannel start as deemon but according to Kannel documentation it can be started in other ways like ./bearerbox -v 1 [config-file]
2. According to Kannel documentation, it comes with "smskannel.conf" as a sample file but I couldn't locate it anywhere (including /usr/share/doc/kannel-1.4.1). Where can I find it?
3. Can somebody guide me on where to start looking for in order to learn Kannel and integrate it with the web (with apache and php)?
Thanks

I don't know that package, but if it's installed from an RPM, you can query the package to find out what files are in it, and where they'll end up.
e.g. rpm -ql httpd
Will list all the files in an installed "httpd" package (Apache).
If you want to query an un-installed package, include the p option, and use the filename instead of package name.
e.g. rpm -qlp example_package.rpm
You can find particular installed commands with the "which" command.
e.g. which chmod
And you can find other files, once they've been indexed by slocate with the "locate" command.
e.g. locate httpd.conf
There's other searching tools available, as well.
