[Xymon] How to setup SMS service?

[Smith, Jim]

It isn't SMS, but I use a freeware package called "qpage" to send text alerts.  You just have to get the providers for your cell phones/pagers to give you their "TAP" number.  Fortunately, all of mine are Verizon.
Don't know if this thing is still out there on the 'net, though.  I've had it for years.

This is something that's always amused me - if I've got an email2SMS
service set up, how do I get the SMS to tell me that my mail server or
mail provider or connectivity's gone down?

Personally I use SMS_Client to send SMS directly via the POTS for
critical alerts.

Regards,

Carl
