network status thru voice
Hi, I would like our users to know if our local or international link to the internet is up or down. One solution I'm looking at is our users would dial a tel. no. and they would be greeted with a voice saying the link is up or down. Is there a program for this? Perl or C program would do? regards, == == Andre M.

There's a package in debian (unstable) named festival that does voice synthesis. That's part of what you want, but you'll have to figure out how to get the sound out over the telephone, I guess. -- see shy jo -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

You can probably convince vgetty (a modified mgetty for voice) to do this for you, although I've always found it too hard to find sufficient documentation to get it running. It would play pre-recorded sounds for you. hamish -- Hamish Moffatt, [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Debian packages at ftp://ftp.rising.com.au/pub/hamish.
