for graphical service level monitoring i prefer spong (son of pong). it's great, is easy to install and has a couple neat features. > > Does anyone know of some software for linux that will send a message to an > > alphanumeric pager in the event of an error or other event. for this i would suggest checking out nocol or maybe mon, both of which (i think mon does as well) have support of alpha pagers. http://strobe.weeg.uiowa.edu/~edhill/public/spong/ http://consult.ml.org/~trockij/mon/ i don't have a url handy for nocal but i belive it's on sunsite. in any event a web search should turn it up easily. adam. ------------------------ Internet Alaska ------------------------- 4050 Lake Otis Adam Shand (v) +1 907 562 4638 Anchorage, Alaska Systems Administrator (f) +1 907 562 1677 ----------------- http://larry.earthlight.co.nz ------------------ -- Beware!
