Answer 1

Sound's like you're using Linux. If so, the easiest way would be to use a package management frontend like Synaptic and install ant in there.

Answer 3

the installation of ant and smslib is pretty simple. All you need to do is extract it to some directory. Export the path in case of Linux or set the ANT_HOME\bin to the PATH variable to access it from any directory in the shell. ANT_HOME is the root directory where ant is installed.

For SMSLib Download the zip file and this link should guide you on a step by step basis
