[Xymon] How to setup SMS service?

[Jon Dustin]

I used to use QPAGE as well, but ATT Wireless took away that function. They like to charge for  BOTH sending AND receiving text messages, so I have a pair of serial port GSM modems to send text messages. 

Please forgive typos - sent from a mobile device
