I have an interesting problem.
Our internet connection at work has been "problematic". (it fails on
average once every 2week for about 2 min). I need to know when the
problem happens so I can run some tests while the connection is down.
What I'm looking for is some way to send a message via IM in a script.
I have a process that checks various /var/log files and sends me an
e-mail each time the connection goes down, but I would prefer if the
message was sent via either jabber or the "Bonjour/Avahi/People
Nearby/Rendezvous" protocol. Any suggestion on a CLI client that could
be used in a script?
I assume you have a secondary internet connection (obviously?)... this
could be helpful:
