COMMZGATE Messaging Server v4.3 consists of 3 components:

4) GSM transceiver modem device

You will require a GSM modem device with a working SIM card to send and receive SMS.

Default configured modem port for Linux is /dev/ttyS0

If you are using the USB version of our modem device, change the port setting to /dev/USB0, /dev/ttyUSB0 or the correct port that your OS has assigned the USB connection.

You can configure the port that your device is connected to by logging to the COMMZGATE Web Management interface and going to: Configure > Preferences

    If you are installing on a 64-bit system and face this error:
    "/lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory"
    32 bit libraries are missing from your system

    You can fix this with the following steps:

    On any RPM based distribution (CentOS/RedHat/Fedora/Suse/Mandriva):
    yum -y install glibc.i686

    On any DEB based distribution (Debian/Ubuntu/Mint/Crunchbang):
    apt-get update
    apt-get install ia32-libs
