Re: send messages in hpux

hv a monitoring tool and generate an snmp alert to the monitoring tool which the operator can monitor

Or use sendmail to send it as an email

You can mail with the mailx command....if the OPS are telneted to the server, then a Broadcast message can be sent - with say the wall or write command.

Hi,

If you have CIFS client/server installed in your machine then you would have this smbclient binary.

smbclient is usally located in /opt/samba/bin/

# /opt/samba/bin/smbclient -M


#

# cat /tmp/msg | smbclient -M yourwinmac

I use mail to quickly trasmit information, with mailx :
echo "hardware pbl on `hostname`" | mailx -m -s "ALERT" toto@enterprise.com

But SNMP trap is also possible, with the UCD package : http://www.ece.ucdavis.edu/ucd-snmp/.
