Yes, the solution is discussed in that thread that you reference. Adapting the work-around described in that thread to your situation, it would work like this: In the WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC directory, you'll find a file named HOSTS. Edit this file, and add the following entries: 123.123.123.123 smpp1.smsc 123.123.123.123 smpp2.smsc 123.123.123.123 smpp3.smsc 123.123.123.123 smpp4.smsc (Instead of 123.123.123.123, put in the IP address of smpp.host.com.) In NowSMS, rather than configuring the IP address of the SMSC, specify the phony host name that was added to the HOSTS file. So SMSC definition #1 would point to "smpp1.smsc". SMSC definition #2 would point to "smpp2.smsc". SMSC definition #3 would point to "smpp3.smsc". SMSC definition #4 would point to "smpp4.smsc". The HOSTS file would resolve all to the same IP address. -bn | |||
