You'll be needing a commandline application which can send an SMS, given some text to send, and a number to send it to (this could be hardcoded into the application). Something like ./sendsms --to +4477123123123 "This is an SMS" Once you have that, it's easy enough to interface to Bacula, in the same way that job results are emailed. You'll probably find the same tool useful for a bazillion other things (pushing your bill up in the process :) -- Russell Howe [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
