We use gnokii and serial attached siemens m20 sms box.  I have 2 of them and 
they are rock solid.
gnokii uses a mysql database. so a simple insert in the outbox table is enough 
to send a sms.

PS: our monitor setup is much more complicated.  We use 2 SMS gateways and 2 
dialers (asterisk software connected to a VoIP box) in 2 different countries.  
Each customer has a monitor server that can connect to the dialers if there is 
an alert.  The dialer calls the system engineer and sends a sms.
