Let us go back to the drawing board. I would think more along the lines of: - Nagios alert messages add or remove messages from a text file. (Say 1 event per line). - xmessages checks the file each minute or so and if it is not empty it will show the content. Perhaps just restart xmessage with the new content if the content has changed. It is a rather crude scetch but it might point you into a direction you may not have considered yet. Have you considered looking at that firefox plugin? It will propably do something quite similar to what you want to achive. Hugo. - -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hugo.vanderkooij.org/ PGP/GPG?
