This leads me to believe that either mail.alert doesn't > exist in the alert directory (as defined in the 'alertdir' directive in > mon.cfg) or mail.alert doesn't have the executable bit set. > no, mail.alert is ok as far as i know. i use this alert for nearly all my watchs and mail get sent fine. it has something to with trapping, i am sure. i found some comments on the list, one talking about a patch, suggesting to remove a "undef" definition somewhere, but i am not sure if i should do this as i dont know what it affects... perhaps jim could comment on this. this is the message on the archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/mon@linux.kernel.org/msg00341.html best regards, philipp -- ----------------- Philipp Steinkrueger Oberberg Online Informationssysteme GmbH http://www.oberberg.net PGPkeyID: 690A9504 Key Fingerprint: 35CE 467E C813 06B0 B8E3 0275 2B1E E84A 690A 9504
