alert with thold

[pyth]

Hello everyone,

I have installed thold and let the basic configurations. It works well because I have effectuated a warning test on a host. But I wish now that when certain threshold are exceeded there is a return mail alerting (and why not thereafter via sms).

So I would like to know if ever there was a doc on this plugin, or if you could give me more informations, I suppose that if there is a Sends mail must setup other tools.

I make a small step backwards, when I have installed the plugin architecture,normally the config.php file should have been changing, and I submit the information about my database ... Yet it was precisely the same file by that before. So with regard a line that looks like this
$plugins = array(); ===> nothing, so i have added by hand, is it normal ?

ps : this time fmangeant i have searched , but nothing on a thold manual

[pyth]

yes of course, but i have said that thold work :p, but i don't arrive to alert by mail. I don"t know how to configure the "Mail / DNS" & "Alerting / Thold" tab in setting.

Do you have a SMTP relay on your network ?

[pyth]

i dont know (i am just a trainee), but if i install a SMTP server on my ubuntu server, it will be work no ?
but imagine there is a relay SMTP on the network, if i install a SMTP server it will be create a conflict between the two ?

[fmangeant]

You can either use DNS resolution to send mails, or forward them to a SMTP relay, it's up to you.

ok, if i choose to install smtp (postfix & dovecot), in Mail/DNS tab, i choose for Mail Service SMTP, i let localhost in SMTP option, and will be work you think ?

[fmangeant]

If your SMTP server is well configured, yes...

[pyth]

yes you have right peecee, but the network administrator is in holidays so i try , but not on the enterprise network.
It is just to move forward and exploit opportunities, later I would ask him permission.
