Hi and thanks to Keke. I have been using smstools for almost a year. Overall a great and easy piece of software to use.
About the files in /var/spool/sms/incoming and /var/spool/sms/sent, can I safely delete them? Is there some kind of cron job that can do that on, say, a weekly basis ? Please advise. TIA.

You can delete files, if you do not need them. Smsd itself does not need those files, but if you are running an eventhandler which refers to sent files, then files must be kept. In any case it is reasonable to keep the size of directories small, not containing thousands of files. Here is the script which moves files older than one week to the archive. Cron could run this script for example once per hour. #!/bin/bash
BASEDIR="/var/spool/sms"
DIRS="sent report incoming"
for dir in $DIRS
do
! [ -d $BASEDIR/archive/$dir ] && mkdir $BASEDIR/archive/$dir
find $BASEDIR/$dir -type f -mtime +6 -exec mv {} $BASEDIR/archive/$dir \;
done

Thanks.
One question: Do you successfully use status reports with your Wavecom (Fastrak Supreme 10 ?) modem? If you do, can you insert the modem setting report_device_details = yes, restart smsd and show those details from the log?

My bad  I must have accidentally copied the version number from somewhere, when actually I am only running v3.1.6 instead of v3.1.11. My apologies. All other info are correct though. I inserted report_device_details = yes into smsd.conf and restart gave an error. So I just comment that settings and restart smsd. This is a production server. Would it be okay to upgrade by just overwriting the old files with the newer version ? |

You do not need to upgrade smsd, but if you do, just compile the new version and cp -p smsd $(which smsd).
The information what I was seeking for, was answers from the modem to the following commands:
AT+CGMI
AT+CGMM
AT+CGMR
AT+CNMI=?
AT+CNMI?
But if you have not successfully used status reports, the information is not required.
