Operating system name and version: XP with cygwin
Version of smsd: 3.1.12
Smsd installed from: package repository
Name and model of a modem / phone: ZTE MF102
Interface: USB

I have got two previous Huawei modems connected to my server which are working splendid on com8 and com16. However, while trying to use this ZTE-modem the logfile keeps saying "Cannot open serial port /dev/com18, error: No such file or directory", even though i have no problem connecting to the modem via Hyperterminal on com18. Are there any known problems with this modem? What could be the cause of this error?

smsd.config:
# Example smsd.conf. Read the manual for a description

devices = tre
logfile = /var/log/smsd.log
loglevel = 7
failed = /var/spool/sms/failed
eventhandler = /usr/src/smstools3/scripts/sms2xmlmedftpuploadtest

[telia]
device = /dev/com16
incoming = yes
#pin = 1111

[tre]
device = /dev/com18
incoming = yes
#pin = 1111

[comviq]
device = /dev/com8
incoming = yes
#pin = 1111

Log:
2010-09-16 10:57:02,5, tre: Modem handler 0 has started. PID: 2180.

As far as I know, some other ZTE MF* devices have been working well with Cygwin. I do not know why in your case the port is not available. Perhaps it has something to do with drivers of ZTE.
