Of course not, but I'm asking for help for how to have "kannel.conf".
Uhm.. forget it. I've now seen that we have a conffile in CfgGroup
structure,
so smsc_at2_create receive its Config and know which file have it been read,
so I just have to re-read the same file.

exactly. Use it to set SMSC_RECONNECTING thus disabling this smsc and
forcing the messages to go through other connection
and/or try to reconnect the modem. My M20 disconnects from the network,
sometimes temporarly as in  some minutes and get back to normal, sometimes
real disconnect and don't reconnect. The strange is that if I restart
kannel, the
M20 reconnects to GSM.
I was thinking in if the modem disconnects from GSM, kannel would reconnect
to the modem and hope that the AT&F... and other initialization command
would reconnect it to GSM
