Hi y'all,
can any of you recommend a command-line tool for sending an SMS to a
cell phone? Half an hour of googl'ing has brought me only outdated,
half-finished or modem dependant stuff of little or no value.
Help much appreciated.
For this to work, yo basically need some gateway for connecting the two
different networks (IP -> Cellular).
Not sure if this will help you, but what you can do is:
1. Have your servers send an email to a server that you control
2. On this email server install a package called "smstools"
http://smstools3.kekekasvi.com/
yum install should work in F8.
3. Attach a GSM modem to this machine

Now you can parse the messages that come in, convert them in a format
required for smsd. Effectively you have your own SMS gateway :)
Otherwise, you can try and find a third party smsgateways services that
others have mentioned earlier. But if these alerts are really critical,
I prefer something that I can mostly control.
