Thank you, Norm. I'll lookup vbscripting, and see how it's
done. I know how to do this on perl and expect, hopefully vbscripting
will be intuitively related. Would you happen to know
whether it's possible to install perl on a WU gold server and
use any perl mail-module successfully? Can
the WU variables (the %a %L10 etc) be passed to other
(external) programs? Thanks for the awesome
help!

Paul,
It should be possible if you use a
program (i.e. VBScript) instead of the basic WU SMTP message. I use VBScript
programs for all of my alert processing. I get more control over the message
content plus I can do message suppression.
You should be able to issue a
tracert command from the VBScript program and pipe the output to a file.
After the tracert has completed, you can read the file into the program and
include the information in a formatted email.
Let me know if you need an example
of the VBScript.

Hi
folks! I was curious if anyone had tried to add output from other
scripts onto the Alert Emails. We'd like to be able to execute a
traceroute when a device is down (to troubleshoot routing issues), and have
the output be pasted onto the Alert Email that WU sends
out. I'm running WUG 8. Has anyone had any success in doing
this? How can I go about it? is it possible?
Thanks so much for pointing me in the right direction.
Paul
