Re: Multiple instances of gnokii

[Dhillon Andrew Kannabhiran]

Thanks mate -- I was thinking the second phone would be on a different
database -- that way we could avoid the complicatedness of having both
phones accessing the same database..we could then have a controlling perl
script that will do round robin pull from a third database and distribute it
evenly across both the phones... as for reading, the same thing as well perl
would handle the pulling in from the inbox and sorting it out by MSISDN and
putting it into the relevant tables in a third db of sorts... what do you
think? I think this method would result in less code touching, and would
work just as well... with crontab of course :)
