RE: Compiling and installing Kannel

Hello! I think I've found the solution for this (see message below).
Before re-compiling just a while ago, I made my time settings to be in
synch with the time of the NTP server. Then I got no make warning again.

However, the problem is, when I try to re-install, it seems that it does
not overwrite my previous installation. I still get the
/home/kannel/gateway-1.2.1/... when I try to locate the smskannel.conf
and kannel.conf even though I try to install in different directory.
Further, there is no (I could not see it, really) gateway-1.2.1
directory under the /home/kannel. Any idea on how to debug this? Also,
do I have to configure the SMS settings prior to compilation? Do I have
to use the sample smskannel.conf provided in the package or could I make
my own? Where to place the configuration file?

What should I do to remove the installed files (if there was any?). I'd
like to clean them up before installing again (or might try another
version this time). 

Thank you,

Jane

I was compiling the Kannel yesterday (version 1.2.1) and I got a warning
that says something like "Clock skew detected. Compiling may not be
completely ...". I think this has something to do with the makefile or
make version of the I'm using. I am running it on Redhat  Linux 9 (in
kernel 686) with a GNU make version of 3.79.1. 
 
I ignored the above warning and proceeded to install the Kannel at the
/home/kannel directory. I got it running but I got the same warning as
above. When the installation was finished (I thought so), I searched for
the kannel.conf and smskannel.conf using the LOCATE KANNEL.CONF and
LOCATE SMSKANNEL.CONF so that I could configure it for SMS. I got a
response of /home/kannel/gateway-1.2.1/.../kannel.conf and
/home/kannel/gateway-1.2.1/.../smskannel.conf, respectively. I also
searched for gw using LOCATE GW and I got, among others, smsc,
bearerbox, smsbox files in my /home/kannel/gateway-1.2.1 directory.
However, when I try to go to the gateway-1.2.1 in /home/kannel in the
command line, I got a response that says said directory is not found. I
then opened the /home/kannel directory using the File Manager but
there's no gateway-1.2.1 installed. All I could see are the 3 binary
files wmlsc, wmlsdasm, and seewbmp. I could not also open those files
because there's no viewer installed in my server. What's happening here?
Why couldn't I find the gateway-1.2.1 directory in the installation
directory while in fact I could see those when I try to locate them in
the command line?
 
Thank you, and I hope I could get some answers the soonest.
