My search has ended. btinternet in the UK have a web form to send sms messages. You have to be registered with bt. (which i was). Its two simple web forms, so scripting it in perl was fairly trivial. And syslog-ng's program destination pipes messages straight to the perl script. Seems to work nicely ;) If any1 in the uk wants a copy of the script i'll mail it out. Shame syslog-ng holds the program open all the time, rather than just exec'ing it when neeed... alas beggars/choosers ;) - foob On Thu, 31 May 2001, Laurence Baldwin wrote:
Hi Here in South Africa I can send sms to my cellphone via email. Its simple to send emails from command line and best of all its free. It all depends if your SP supports email@sms.

Maybe a bit off topic - but the syslog-ng feature to pipe logs to programs got me thinking: does anyone know of a provider or service that will allow me to send mobile SMS messages from the command line? I like the idea of getting alerts if, say, login fails for root and other such naughtyness :)
