It is often a lot easier to use an email-SMS gateway service rather
than setting up web sms directly.  For example I used to use
http://www.intellisms.co.uk/ .

You have to set up your own Nagios notification definitions to format
the email appropriately to the way your chosen email-sms gateway
works.  For example to use intellisms they expect the email to have
the login and recipient information in the subject line of the email.
I had something like this:

# 'notify-host-by-sms-IntelliSMS' command definition
define command{
  command_name  notify-host-by-sms-IntelliSMS
  command_line  /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Nagios: Host $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$
$HOSTALIAS$ now $HOSTSTATE$ at $SHORTDATETIME$ Info: $HOSTOUTPUT$" |
/usr/bin/mail -s "Username:yourusername Password:$USER3$
To:$CONTACTPAGER$" sendsms at messaging.intellisoftware.co.uk
  }

You'll need something similar for the service notification command
definition too.

You need to set up your contact definitions in Nagios to use this
notification command instead of the standard Nagios one and put the
mobile number of the recipient in the pager directive in the contact
definition.

You also need to put the password in the resources.cfg file.


Another option is your mobile phone provider might have their own
email system which allows you to receive emails on your mobile.  It
might be more cost effective to use that, although I have found that
with some providers it can be very unreliable.

hth,
