SMS notification with gammu

[Dinçer Kavraal]

Hi Simon,
Let Nagios to write the action into a file. This is because you should be
sure that Nagios runs the command exactly as yours. There can be some
exceptions (bugs, some missed escape chars, ...).
Thus, see the difference.

First of all, let it write into a file. For instance, change the command
like,
echo '/usr/bin/printf "%b" "Svc:$SERVICEDESC$ ++Host:$HOSTALIAS$ ++
Addr:$HOSTADDRESS$ ++ State:$SERVICESTATE$ ++Date:$SHORTDATETIME$" |
/usr/local/bin/gammu --sendsms TEXT $CONTACTPAGER$' >> /tmp/someTempFile

After you're sure a notification is done, open that temporary file and get a
random line (first, last or any) then try to execute it. Result? Same?

This makes difference. Waiting for your reply.
