We've done such a thing, but we do it using Perl, with some HTTP
interface modules. Basically the shell script calls the Perl script
with certain parameters (the phone number to page, for instance), and
the Perl script makes the HTTP request. As far as how to do this with
vanilla shell script, I'm not sure that it can be done...

Subject: HTTP Request In A Script
Admins,
Not sure if this can be done or not. I need to make an HTTP request to a
server from within a script. This is for a monitoring script that will
page my phone when a high threshold is reached (like a full filesystem).
I have the syntax from an .asp file that makes the request via a Windows
browser, but I have no clue how to do this from within a korn shell
script. Here is a sample of the syntax:
//var winhandle = window.open('http://xx.xx.xx.xxx/index.php?number=' +
txtNumber + '&message=' + txtMessage + '&Send=Send' , 'def',
width=700,height=600,screenX=0,screenY=0,location=no,resizable=yes,scrol
lbars=yes');
Or if anyone has something similar implemented that they'd like to
share, that would be a great help also.
Thanks in advance,
-Darryl
