Scenario: Running NT 4.0 SP6a domain, with Win2k SP2 servers (soon to be
SP4) and an Ex5.5 SP4 e-mail system.
Objective: If particular services on a server are still having problems
after restarting more than twice, I want the server to page me via text
e-mail message at my cell phone. I don't know a lot about coding, but would
be willing to learn. What would be the easiest way to do this? I was
thinking of several options:
1. ActiveState PERL, using the Net::SMTP module to send an e-mail.
2. Some kind of VB script.
3. Blat, Postie or something along those lines.
4. Some program (preferably Freeware) that I can customize to do this for
me.
a. IPSentry LITE Network Monitoring Software may do the trick...but
it's only for a max of 2 devices...costs $99 for the full version (I bet I
can swing that) ;0)
b. Server Service Monitor 1.15:

Anyone have anything better?
TIA,
Jim Blunt
