In "Nagios 2nd Edition" from Wolfgang Barth, he covers this in section
12.4.2. He covers "smsclient", "yasp", and "smssend", but he points out
what Jim pointed out... most are email to SMS conversion tools so if
email is done, you're still not notified. "smsclient" and a modem
resolve this. I have it installed and working fine. Our normal
notifications go via email, but if a network device or email server is
down, then notifications go via SMS.
