 |
|
Hello!
I'd appreaciate very much if someone can explain me how to make Threshold plugin sends SMS under win32. Maybe thourgh gnokii? I've already achieved to get gnokii sending sms from a text file but I don't know how to make PHP write those files and execute the command line for gnokii.
Any ideas or future realeases of thold?
Many thanks in advance!!!

Hi,
Not sure where you're based in the world, be we use an email to SMS company to achieve this:

The prices for the UK are pretty good, but it will really depend on where you're based.

Many thanks for your reply. Anyway I finally wrote a script on KIX to make the sms sending from a GSM mdm. I basically put my localhost as the smtp server for cacti, then converted the mails on the queue to txt files and send them out with gnokii.
Best regards!

Yes, of course!
Please find attached the kix-script you'll need to modify to fit your requirements.
Your scheduled task for the poller must be replaced by the batch enclosed.
You will need to download KIX32.exe and the gnokii for windows application. KIX32 should be on a windows path directory. Gnokii files must be placed under %userprofile% root (docs&settings\user\.) of the user which runs the scheduled task (no SYSTEM account possible).
Have luck! And ask me if you need further assistance...

| plustotal, you need to install SMTP service on your win32 cacti box. That won't send the messages to anywhere as you don't have to configure parameters for outbound, then the SMTP service will store the emails sent to that hostname (you can put localhost as your email server in cacti) in the Queue folder with EML extension. It's complex and you'll need to spend a lot of time, mostly with the gnokii, but at least the script is already done!

plustotal,
There's no way (with my script) to receive email + SMS alerts - you need to switch. So if instead of pointing your cacti to send emails via SMTP:yourexchangeserver you need to put the cacti hostname itself, install SMTP on your cacti box (of course needs to be different machine than your exchange server) and proceed
