Hi all,

Does any one have a script that can be used with sendmail so that I can
send an email to the nagios server to acknowledge events? or any idea
how to go about writing one?

 

Many thanks,

 

 

 

I should write one, that sounds like a good idea.

 

Mail server on the nagios box that can accept email.  So in my case make
an exchange smtp forward. Send email to address at box

 

Alias from address to |/etc/smrsh/my_perlscript.pl

 

Parse the email with MIME::Parser, or something else. If there's a hit,
write acknowledgement to command file.

 

That's how I'd do it, but I'm new at this so eh.
