Gnokii says yes..i say no

[Brad Dunn]

Hi there, I had a question about gnokii in relation to sending nagios SMS
alerts.

First off this is on a Debian linux box and gnokii works no worries from the
command line. Nagios Also has the permissions in order to run gnokii
commands as when I su to nagios I can still send sms's manually etc.

Next this is from my /var/nagios.log file which to me seems to indicate that
the SMS's are being send ok. (which they aren't)

<SNIP>
[1050586817] SERVICE NOTIFICATION: nagios;server91;FTP;OK;notify-by-sms;FTP
OK -   0.008 second response time on port 21 [220 server91 Micro
soft FTP Service (Version 5.0).]
</SNIP>

This is what my contacts.cfg looks like


<SNIP>
# 'nagios' contact definition
define contact{
        contact_name                    nagios
        alias                           Nagios Admin
        service_notification_period     24x7
        host_notification_period        24x7
        service_notification_options    w,u,c,r
        host_notification_options       d,u,r
        service_notification_commands   notify-by-email,notify-by-sms
        host_notification_commands
host-notify-by-email,host-notify-by-sms
        email                           alerts at pretzel.com.au
        pager                           0420000000
        }
</SNIP>


And this is what my misccommands.cfg looks like

<SNIP>
# 'notify-by-sms'
define command{
        command_name    notify-by-sms
        command_line    /bin/echo '$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$: $HOSTNAME$:
$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ ($OUTPUT$)'| /usr/local/bin/gnokii --sendsm
s $CONTACTPAGER$
        }


# 'host-notify-by-sms'
define command{
        command_name    host-notify-by-sms
        command_line    /bin/echo '$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$: $HOSTNAME$ is
$HOSTSTATE$ ($OUTPUT$)' | /usr/local/bin/gnokii --sendsms $CONTACTPAGER$
        }
</SNIP>




Note # my gnokii bin sits [/usr/local/bin/gnokii]

The gnokii config file looks like this

<SNIP>
[global]
port = /dev/ttyS0
model = 7110
initlength = default
connection = serial
bindir = /usr/sbin/
</SNIP>



Now I cant find any other useful gnokii / nagios logs that are reporting any
errors that would help me work this out. Does anyone have any suggestions,
I've been through the forums and FAQ's etc with little luck on finding a
solution.
