[Xymon] xymon alert noise

________________________________

No idea what you mean by sound - but I'll share my version of sound

I have a special page set that the operators see -    opsnongreen_header   -   and I put a     bgsound src=   in that html

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="60">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="EXPIRES" CONTENT="Sat, 01 Jan 2001 00:00:00 GMT">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Set-Cookie" CONTENT="pagepath=&XYMWEBPAGEPATH; path=/">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Set-Cookie" CONTENT="host=; path=/">
<TITLE>&XYMWEBBACKGROUND : Xymon - Status @ &XYMWEBDATE</TITLE>

<!-- Styles for the Xymon body  -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="&XYMONBODYCSSOPS">

<!-- Styles for the menu bar -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="&XYMONBODYMENUCSSOPS">

<!-- The favicon image -->
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="&XYMONSKIN/favicon-&XYMWEBBACKGROUND.ico">

</HEAD>

<BODY class="&XYMWEBBACKGROUND">

<bgsound src="&XYMONSKIN/../sounds/&XYMWEBBACKGROUND.wav" loop="0">

--- snip ----

the fun thing is it only works in windows explorer and I don't use explorer - so when I go to the operators page (using firefox) - I do not have an obnoxious sound

YMMV

I would start by typing "man alerts.cfg" and marvel at the possibilities
offered by the SCRIPT recipient.

Then the challenge is to write a script that beeps, which is left as an
exercise for the OP.
