What do you think ? Thanks Dennis and Peter for you inputs ... i have downloaded smstools started with the configuration..... </div> <div>On 1/5/08, Peter Edmonds <<a href="mailto:termx23@gmail.com" target="_blank">termx23@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">> which tools do you use to send sms through GSM modem (connected via COM) > through nagios: > smstools, kanal, or smsclient I use gnokii.
