[mrtg] Re: Help required(sending SMS alerts)

[Syed Waqqas Ahmed]

I am experiencing difficulty in integrating all these things together. Like I am able to send SMS through AT command that’s no issue. But checking for new email and then sending SMS including contents of email.. that’s the difficult part...
   
  Any help in this regard.. ??

For sending SMS message you need to send AT commands to you mobile
phone. I wrote a program in C and it use to be called by the nagios.
This program send message packed in AT commands to mobile phone/GSM
Modem and it sends the SMS message.

I am not sure about perl. If you can do the same in perl then I think
its not that difficult.

For getting the email, you will have to write a script/code that gets
the messages from the mail server. But you might be able to find the
scripts for that too.

Best of luck

Hi all,

I need some help in configuring sms alert using mobile phone attached
