Custom Notification Script

Hi,

I've just installed Nagios, which looks great.

We have our own SMS gateway, which is accessed via an HTTP post. I have 
a Perl script that is intended to send the notification messages.

When I run the script from the command line, it works fine.

I have put a command into /etc/nagios/misccommands.cfg like so:
define command{
    command_name   notify-by-sms
    command_line      /home/web/bin/sendSMS.pl $CONTACTPAGER} "This is 
the message"
    }
Then, if I refer to notify-by-sms, notify-by-email, only the email goes. 
The script logs to a file, so I know it isn't being called (I've tried 
logging in as the nagios user and running the script, and it works).

Any ideas what I need to do to get these notifications working? With 
this, I'm pretty much there with my Nagios installation, and I'll be 
able to scrap a ream of perl based monitoring scripts.

Thanks in advance,
