Re: {bb} Pager Problems

["Nick Silberstein" <nick@fluentcomm.com>]

Is the path to kermit correct? Does bbchkcfg.sh return
any warnings?

Edit $BBHOME/bin/sendmsg and look for the line which
reads:
$KERMIT $A1 ttyline $A2 > /dev/null

Add a line before or after it reading:
echo debug: $KERMIT $A1 ttyline $A2

Cause a fault on a monitored system, and take a look in
$BBHOME/BBOUT for the debug line.  See if manually
invoking that command line causes a successful page. If
not, play around with it,..

I personally needed to play around with numeric-k6.scr
for a while before I got numeric paging working properly.
