Hi, Matt.

Can you give some more details about you "homegrown server monitor"
and how it works?

Seems to far that all I need to do is make sure my client has a phone and
phone service that are email or SMS compatible (if there's a difference)
and have CF fire off an email when a certain activity on the site occurs.

Is that about the size of it, or is there more to it?

Rick
