Have you satisfied the requirements as listed on the page at http://www.kannel.org/overview.shtml#req?

Are you pulling the kannel packages from RPMFORGE using yum?

Is your problem with installation, or with configuration?

Thanks for your input, yes i do have problems with the configuration . at the start i do had problems with yum as well . i guess there is no rpm package of kannel for centos . so i build it up using the source . which led me towards the libxml problem which i just came over . now i am stuck in the configuration .a point where even after so much googling i am not able to come over . just cant understand the configuration . i have tried it on virtual environment and please guide me about the os . as i have seen most of the people doing it on Ubuntu?

The best way to get it working on CentOS is NOT from source. The best way is to add RPMFORGE to your YUM repos definitions (there are pages that tell you how, duckduckgo [or google] is your friend there) and then let yum take care of the dependencies. This also makes updates automatic.

As for the configuration, I do not use that application so I could only point you at we pages. You might do better searching for yourself.

With luck, someone familiar with kannel will happen by and point us both at the configuration pages.

(Have you installed and checked the MAN pages? If you installed from source they should be somewhere about.)

Thanks .yes i hope that someone can help me go.
