Can someone recommend directions for setting up an SMS server and
integrating it with hobbit? I'm a novice about this, so something that is
written well would be appreciative. There seems to be a lot on Google
when I did a simple search.
We use gnokii and serial attached siemens m20 sms box. I have 2 of them and they are rock solid.
gnokii uses a mysql database. so a simple insert in the outbox table is enough to send a sms.

PS: our monitor setup is much more complicated. We use 2 SMS gateways and 2 dialers (asterisk software connected to a VoIP box) in 2 different countries. Each customer has a monitor server that can connect to the dialers if there is an alert. The dialer calls the system engineer and sends a sms.
