What I had to do was pipe the information into the script, instead of using it as a command line variable. So you could try changing your stuff to look like this: <pre># "notify-by-sms" command definition</pre><pre> define command{</pre><pre> command_name notify-by-sms</pre><pre> command_line /usr/bin/printf "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ with $SERVICEDESC$ </pre><pre> at $HOSTADDRESS$ State: $SERVICESTATE$" | /usr/local/nagios/send_sms && </pre><pre> /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Notification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: </pre><pre> $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: </pre><pre> $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $DATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$OUTPUT$" | </pre><pre> /usr/bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is </pre><pre> $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$</pre><pre> }</pre><pre> </pre><pre> # cat /usr/local/nagios/send_sms</pre><pre> read smstxt</pre><pre> for x in 6135551416</pre><pre> do</pre><pre> echo $smstxt | /usr/local/bin/gnokii --sendsms $x</pre><pre> sleep 10</pre><pre> done</pre><pre> echo `id -un` `date +%c` $x $smstxt >> /usr/local/nagios/logs</pre><pre> </pre><pre> </pre> Paul </div> </body> </html>
