I use 'qpage', which drives a direct attach modem, through a dedicated analog line.

Re: [Nagios-users] SMS notifications to a cell phone
well, you could just use gnokii or something like that and have a mobile phone connected directly to the nagios server, although I haven't tried this myself. it does mean that there is a completely separate route for gettng alerts. -h Hari Sekhon Tom Brown wrote: I am in the process of setting up nagios for monitoring key services in our network setup.

[Nagios-users] SMS notifications to a cell phone
Hi All, I am in the process of setting up nagios for monitoring key services in our network setup. I have already tested and used the email method of sending notifications using Sendmail as my relay host. I would be grateful if I get some pointers for sending notifications using SMS to a cell number, in case of service failures and recoveries. I went through the nagios docs. They have mentioned quite a few options for using SMS as a notification method. But it seems that one needs to subscribe to the services of a service provider to use any of those options. And the service provider should be providing services in your country/location. Is it possible to use this notification without subscribing to any specific paid service ? I am extremely sorry if this question has already been answered before. Thanks In Advance Yogesh - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
