[mrtg] Re: threshold

[Christopher A. Congdon]

OK, I have no idea why the last message I sent to the list looked like
code... So I'll try again.

Is program triggering from MRTG limited to Perl scripts, or could any
external program be run? Specifically I was thinking of VBScript through
WSH.

# Purpose: This script will send an email when either threshold value

function...
(eg. "cat /dev/snd /home/idjit/sound_file.wav" to play a sound)

open EMAIL, ">/tmp/message";
        print EMAIL "helo me\n";
        print EMAIL "onex\n";
        print EMAIL "mail from: <user\@host.com>\n";
        print EMAIL "rcpt to: <dave\@host.com>\n";
        print EMAIL "rcpt to: <bob\@host.com>\n";
        print EMAIL "data\n";
        print EMAIL "subject:  Threshold Exceeded blah blah blah";
print EMAIL ".\n";
print EMAIL "quit\n";
close EMAIL;
sleep 5;
`/usr/lib/sendmail -bs < /tmp/message`;

Good Luck!
