cscript c:\sendemail.vbs 1234567890@txt.att.net "" "mailserver is down"

I learnt something new about CSCRIPT.

Alright, I know what you meant right now.

Thank you.

once you have the emailing part down,

now you create the batch file/programming, how ever you want....to ping your stuff

when it gets a failed pinging...have it call the batch file..with the cscrpits commands in it.

This part I know. I have the complete picture right now.

BTW, does the script work for you well? Accurate? Do you think should increase the timeout values for slow connections (so that it won't consider it a dead host)?

[net_user]

it works perfect for me....it all depends on your situation really

how good is your vpn..ect ect...do you get any dropoffs?

how often do you need to check?

dude...you said your a I.T. Exec

ask yourself those questions and program and create to your needs

I have answered my own question, increase timeout values and return as alive host for slower connections will work in my situation.

Thank you once again.

Dear Super Moderator, thank you for your contribution. I am not well-versed in VBS scripting, so I have no way to comment the code snippet.

BTW, I have resigned the position as I.T. Executive and am now seeking new job. It is too much to handle 40 outlets statewide.
