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. <o:p></o:p> <pre><o:p> </o:p></pre><pre> A.
