The version I found was from 1992. (perhaps this is the |> latest?) Has anyone successfully ported this to SCO? In the March/April, 1994 issue of SysAdmin, on page 71, there was an excellent article on using UUCP as an early-warning system to your pager...I followed the scripts and successfully installed a similar system with modifications customized to my site. The ftp site for the source is ftp.uu.net...look for ../published/sysadmin/1994...look for that month's issue under this directory. Hope this helps! ============================================================================== Micheal Shallop mshallop@sco.com Technical Support Engineer ...uunet!sco!mshallop The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc.
