Douglas, I have a RHEL server that I connected MultiTech CDMA modem (MTCBA-C-U-N3) and running smstools3 with it. Some hackery was needed and it still does not work ideally. What I mean by that, i had to modify the source code of smstools3 to work around GSM SMS message format. In the end it works except one thing: I believe, because of the way smstools addresses memory where the message to be sent is stored, it never releases that memory back. So as a result, it always retains the last message in memory and when a new one needs to be send and if it's shorted then then previous one, I see the new message and leftovers of the previous one at the end. Let me know if you want some documents that I wrote up when I was messing with it. Andrey Gordon [andrey.gordon () gmail com] On Fri, Jun 20, 2008 at 2:25 PM, Douglas K.

From the GMS point of view I live and work in the boondocks: Grand Forks, North Dakota. (OK, so there is a decent argument that the entire US is GSM boondocks.) Anyway, I'm trying to figure out a way of sending and receiving text messages using a tool like smstools and a CDMA modem. I've found the MultiTech CDMA modem (MTCBA-C-N3-NAM) but I can't seem to find any success stories to go along with it. I was wondering if anybody has had any luck with either this modem and smstools3 in particular, or with sending/receiving text messages with a CDMA modem.
