Thread: [Astlinux-users] SMS module ?

How can add SMS sending to Astlinux?

Which program do you recommend?

Thanks,

Marcus

Marcus, you best bet for free SMS is to send them via email. many carriers
do something like this: (Phone #)@gsmportal.carrier.com

in this case, sendmail should work just fine ;)

We want to setup an Astlinux server for handling many connections with 
outgoing SMS, using a Sangoma card. So we cannot use free services for 
that. (Thanks Aleks for the "freebie" info, very useful for private 
use.)

Any suggestions what we could use?

Thanks,

Marcus

Marcus,

  What you are probably looking for is app_sms:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+cmd+Sms

  It is included in Asterisk 1.4.  Asterisk 1.4 is currently in
testing in AstLinux in the asterisk-beta branch in Subversion.

  You could build a bootable image from that branch to support SMS via app_sms.

  I don't know much about app_sms but it appears that it relies on
ISDN features that aren't well supported in the US.  Is this for
Europe or US use (maybe somewhere else)?
