Hi Arif
I will document what I have done later today – sorry just heading out to a meeting now But suggest you look at GAMMU, and make sure you can send an SMS from the command line – that’s my starting point – nonetheless, I will include my GAMMU code as well Sorry it will just have to be later Andi From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Arif Muslax Sent: Monday, 16 April 2012 1:29 p.m. To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ossec-list] Sending Alerts to SMS Hi Andi I have tried to work on this problem/experiment but not succeeded. Could you share what you have done?

SMS is working fine from the command line using GAMMU. I have created a level 12 rule for agents that become inactive - ie suspect faulty server or network - and these I want to receive pretty quickly before they become a major problem to users. I have created a command script that runs on the server (where the Bluetooth is), and whilst that starts and runs OK, I cannot seem to get it to invoke anything other than a simple shell script - I would prefer another language. I've tried writing a wrapper to call my scripts, but it does not execute - so unless you have some insight, I may have to start looking inside the code (ossec-execd?) I would also like to have the agent name passed as a parameter, but that doesn't seem to be available - but I'm sure that's just me missing something Cheers Andy -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of dan (ddp) Sent: Saturday, 28 May 2011 12:02 a.m. To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [ossec-list] Sending Alerts to SMS http://www.ossec.net/doc/syntax/head_ossec_config.email_alerts.html There is an SMS mail format you can use.
