I have spent way too much time with no success on this issue. I just can't get this script to work. Are there any other recommended plug-ins that anyone can recommend. The native e-mailer did not work either and when on the Nagios Wiki I found this about it:<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> by default, nagios uses 'mail' or 'mailx' to send it's email. The actual mail command is found in the default commands.cfg file /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/command.cfg<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> there are two definitions by default 'notify-host-by-email' and 'notify-service-by-email'<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> in each of these definitions, there is a "command_line"; this is what nagios executes in order to send mail using the mail or mailx system (varies from system to system) and it *may* need to be changed in order to work - although I must admit to not having much success so far with it myself :( (see forum thread --><o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Perhaps I'll go back to the native mailx mailer and try that again and reset my commands.cgf back to how it was.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> -----Original Message----- From: nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net [mailto:nagios-users-bounces@lists.sourceforge.net] On Behalf Of Jay R.
