Getting Xymon alerts to the desktop

[netz-haut - stephan seitz]

Hi there,

we've got wall monitors showing different xymon status pages, email and pim notification configured. But, often when it comes to failures, no one notices this instantly because of doing work and having the focus on it.
For this reason, I decided to write a desktop notifier. A small icon at the system tray shows the current color of the configured xymon page, if the color changes, a balloon message pops up and virtually any command can be triggered.

As this might be useful for someone else, I've published it at freshmeat: http://freshmeat.net/projects/xymon-alert

Well, It's licensed under the GPLv2 and available for free, so hopefully this mail doesn't count as advertising.


Mit freundlichen Gruessen
