Yes there is a SIM card in the terminal. We have this on a contract that has a load of free sms messages allocated every month.
Works out very cheap indeed.

I have been using SMSLink very successfully for the past 12 months. I did have to play with the source code to get it working just how we wanted. However, the developer tells me that the changes I have made are now included in the new version. I would take a look at that if you want an easy way to get this working: http://smslink.sourceforge.net/ Once configured and installed all we needed to do was create a notification command like this: define command{ command_name notify-by-sms command_line echo -e "$SERVICEDESC$\r$HOSTNAME$\r$SERVICESTATE$\r$SERVICEOUTPUT$" | /usr/local/bin/sendsms -d $CONTACTPAGER$ -Q -f'-' localhost 2>/dev/null } Works a treat for us. Plus we like the fact that we can also send SMSs to this software. This means that, in theory at least, our engineers could acknowledge a problem or get a status report from Nagios by texting the SMS modem. We have yet to implement this but it was a big selling point for our installation. I hope this helps, Gareth. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dennis Hünseler Sent: 17 March 2008 08:02 To: Meylikhov Cc: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Sending notifications via SMS+mobile phone Meylikhov schrieb: Hi!

Just hook it up to your COM port, install smstool (which is in debian) create the configfile, make a script to send sms and go.... It's really easy. Greets, Sander Meylikhov wrote: Hello, everybody! Can anyone assist me in solving the following task: I need nagios to send SMS via mobile phone connected to COM port. Are there are such possibilities in nagios and are there any plugins that support sending sms via mobile phone? I found only one plugin (NAGIOSMS: http://www.nagiosexchange.org/Notifications.35.0.html?&tx_netnagext_pi1[p_vi ew]=619 )that is currently supports sending notifications via mobile phone but I even can't imagine how to connect mobile phone to my Linux Debian 4.0 server (2.6.18-6-686). Maybe someone already has configured notifications send via mobile phone and can suggest me what mobile phone to buy? I also need any help (suggestions,links, documentation, etc) in connecting mobile phone to my Linux Debian 4.0 server.
