Talking Inovate, Not Creat!

This is a script that does it for you, http://freshmeat.net/projects/pop2smswebde/
On of the best stuff in linux is that you dont need to create sutch scripts / programms download one and work on it a few days to get the results your want.

Dam but are there any web based site that offer *free* sms services? in france, austria... you can go onto sms.fr (whatever) and enter the telephone number ans the message and click send. If you look at the html code, ull see

form action="send.sms.php" method="POST"..
input type="num" name="number...."
input type="title" name="title..." etc..

then just call lynx as http://www.host.com/send.sms.php?num...YouHaveNewMail etc if not im not too shure what to do ;( maybe use an sms deamon but i really have no clue what they do ;D

GREP problem

yes
now is work via my server.
I haved to modify the script.

But this script is no good

perhaps the best solution is:

the file /var/log/maillog

tail -f to the file and take (grep?!?) the <to=USER@myserver.com> and send via that to the USER the SMS.
off course i have to make to the website a script, who wants the sms notification

the problem is how i grep? i only want the part of begin @myserver.com>.....

i havet tried a lot of, but i feel that, grep does take a part of line?!?

Talking in PHP? ;D

#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
#
# An eleet Script By oliver (pH)
# littlescrip.php email
#
<?

$RAW__EMAIL = $argv[1];
print("Hello, i am going to explode his email .\n");
$STAR__EMAIL = explode("@", '$RAW__EMAIL');
print("Ok, I have done it, and its $STAR__EMAIL.\n"

?>

You could make it in BASH as you wish but if your wanting to make it web based, PHP sounded better. ITs very simple. You could add what you want in it... Just ask

<?php

# CREATE TABLE registered (name varchar(250), mail varchar(250));
#

if (!isset($mode))
{

echo <<< __ENDOFREGISTRATION__
<form action="$PHP_SELF?mode=register" mothode="post">
Enter Your Name <input type="text" name="name">
Enter Your E-Mail <input type="text" name="mail">

__ENDOFREGISTRATION__;

}

if ($mode == "register")
{
mysql_connet("$M_HOST","M_USER","M_PASS");
mysql_select_db("$M_DB");
mysql_query("INSERT INTO registered (name,mail) VALUES ('$name','$mail')"):

if (mysql_error() == "") { echo "You are Registerd"; }

}
/* Thats For the simple registration */

?>

then it talk for itself, fdopen, system, mail, and your done. (And my boss just got in i must run (; )

Angry BAD!

Well, isnt linux an oputunity to learn more? If you would know php it would be done in a few minuts.

Ok let get this sorted out now.

Get this programm or any others, seach on http://www.gooogle.com/linux and http://freshmeat.net
Or get this one http://freshmeat.net/projects/pop2smswebde/

Rip it up, Find out how it checks for the mail, find out how and where it sends the sms and just change that function to your web based one, i really think php will do the job because you would need a sript that runs localy and another one calling the site and php does that. Its not only a Great powerfull web based language but also an exelent shell ;D

But im promoting PHP as alwas just continu as you feel everything is possible.

i have alredy findet out how pop2smswebde it works
i have ripped to work on my server..

The works via pop account and sends SMS via (method POST) WWW (i have changet to my server ( http://titanix.d2g.com/sms.shtml etc.. )

That was easy to get work, but i only want a script to run on linux shell as root or noboy using sh or bash, to spy when users get a mail, then send sms to user mobile phone.
