snmp or email commands

I am using a third party software on a Windows 2000 enterprise server. I cannot use netsend because services are not allowed in my company. I can use snmp to do this. I need to set up a bat file with commands to email myself when a certain service stops. The third party software has the capabilty to do this provided I write the dos commands.

all I need it to do is email: myself@myaddress.com
subject: server services has stopped

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Blat was my favourite for this sort of thing. It's great if all you can code are simple batch files.

By the way, I presume the protocol you intend to use is SMTP rather than SNMP. SNMP is a network management protocol and is not involved in sending e-mail messages.

 

The third pary company told me that aren't ready for smtp yet, that I need to use snmp or netsend to alert someone of a service failure.

 

Blat will do what you want. Download it and read through the readme for instructions for its use. All you need is the address of your mail server and an e-mail address to use as the sender address. For example:

If you install BLAT in you 'program files' folder the following will generate a log file of a directory listing and send an e-mail to someone@someplace.com via the mail server mail.someplace.com and from blat@someplace.com.

Code:

dir c:\ > dir.log
 "c:\program files\blat\blat" -install mail.someplace.com blat@someplace.com
 "c:\program files\blat\blat" dir.log -t someone@someplace.com
