The script has to be run from a different machine (not from the machine that runs apache). So it has to query for a http address and if it receives any other reply that 200 OK, it should send the email. Can you guys suggest on how to go about ? Should I use curl ? or wget ? or ping ? I can handle the email part and cron part. If you guys have a similar script please share it if possible. Regards Deepan Sudoku Solver: http://www.sudoku-solver.net/
