simple script question..

mike2010 · 02-07-2009, 08:10 PM

hello, I have a simple bash script im using to email me whenever my server load reaches a certain level. The initial script only allowed input for 1 email though.

Quote:

mail -s "Alert: $curload Load for `hostname` on `date` " myemail@msn.com < /tmp/tmp.00;

If I wanted to add another email address, would I add it next to the first one with some kind of seperator... Or should I just add the whole line again underneath the first one ?

I appreciate the help very much.

Usually multiple addresses are put on the same line, separated by spaces:

Code:

mail -s "Alert: $curload Load for `hostname` on `date` " myemail@msn.com another@gmail.com < /tmp/tmp.00;
