You can fairly easily add custom notification scripts to smartd, so you could have it send mail using a client that talks SMTP directly to a remote relay host (there are numerous Perl modules that do this). Or you could have it broadcast a syslog message, etc. On my desktop systems, I use smart-notifier, which is a Python script that displays a GUI dialog for SMART events. > If that is on the faulted drive then the notice may never get sent. A typical drive fault won't prevent the drive from working. If the problem is that catastrophic, you'll likely notice it in other ways. -Tom -- Tom Metro Venture Logic, Newton, MA, USA "Enterprise solutions through open source."
