I have a premicell and a serial cable going from the server to the premicell. I compiled gnokii and from the command line I can do:
echo "some msg" | gnokii --sendsms <cell number>
And that works. However following the examples from the Hobbit website on sms notifications does not work.
"Does not work" is a rather generic error description. What exactly is that that you cannot get to work? Your alerting rules, the alert script you're - presumably - using to interface with Gnokii, or ... ?
Perhaps if you'd show us what's in your hobbit-alerts.cfg file, and how you're trying to invoke gnokii via an alerting script ? It would make troubleshooting a lot easier.

Sure.
In hobbit-alerts.cfg I have:
HOST=mail MAIL admin at domain.com REPEAT=20 SERVICE=smtp #SCRIPT /usr/local/bin/smsalert FORMAT=SMS #SCRIPT echo "$BBALPHAMSG" | gnokii --sendsms <cell number> FORMAT=SMS
Both of those script calls are commented out as I was trying various things. Here is my /usr/local/bin/smsalert:
#!/bin/sh echo "$BBALPHAMSG" | gnokii --sendsms <cell number>
None of these ideas work. If I use the sendsms method as described in the examples on the Hobbit site, those don't work either.
Thanks Michael
