RE: [hobbit] Troubleshooting Alerts -- Having Problems

["James Wade" <jkwade (at) futurefrontiers.com>]

Thanks, I'll test out the SMS Format.

Can someone give me some pointers on checking the configuration
file and also sending out a test alert. I've looked through the
man page and tried a few things, but it didn't seem to work.

Thanks...James

There is a FORMAT option for alerts. In particular, you probably want  
"FORMAT=SMS". See the hobbit-alerts.cfg man page and the example in  
the alerts file itself.
