I looking for user to register an account on site and system will send password to them thru sms instead of email. Anyone can kindly enlighten on how to do it?
The sms_user module allows you to send a confirmation code to a user's phone when they first login, which they must type before they can continue. I would suggest that this is a much better option than transmitting the unencrypted password over an insecure channel.
Invoking an sms message send on user registration would require a *_user function (that will be called during various user operations, eg: save). If you really want to send the password you would have to write a custom module with a _user module user function and an 'update' operation (invoked by user_save and http://api.drupal.org/api/function/user_module_invoke/6), but you would have to ensure that the message would send only when the user is created, otherwise it will happen every time the user updates their profile (and will fail unless the user changes their password).

Register with mobile
On our site we have a custom module that forces users to register with their mobile number as username. At the same time password is sent as sms.
Requires a _user function...
