Check on deadcat. I seem to recall a script to do this that might be usable with Hobbit. You may also want to search the list archives...something is niggling at the back of my mind that this may have been covered here previously.

Yup. Perfectly doable.

I've got an alert extension script that plays a sound when red alerts come in (selected the normal way, in hobbit-alerts.cfg)

SCRIPT /usr/local/hobbit/server/ext/alerts/sound.sh blank COLOR=RED EXSERVICE=ntp,sslcert,exim,files

sound.sh ==============================Begin=============================== #!/bin/sh export ESPEAKER=localhost:16001 FILE='/usr/local/hobbit/server/ext/alerts/somethingwrong.wav'; esdplay $FILE =======================End=======================

I've got esound installed on the server, and the windows version running on a client machine. The client machine has MyEnTunnel running on it, to forward port 16001, from the client machine, to the server. (over ssh)

Mostly works ok, but sometimes the sound breaks up.
