-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 I'm talking in general terms here but I would start with that little alias Chuck Hollenback gave to the list recently and stick it in the main system startup script. On my Slackware distro, that would be /etc/rc.d/rc.local. after sticking the commands in there, add an additional command to "mail" the output of that script to the e-mail address of your choice. In fact, the echo command Chuck had in there could be substituted with the mail command. I would think that should work.
