Re: enable SMS messaging & alarm thresholds by time

Thank you for the checkbox method suggestion, i will for sure use it.
My php is not as good as too understand a big program like cacti.
Did you ever tried to go to the step to add an sms field to the user table?
That should be even better, thus allowing different phone numbers/user
for different alarms

regards
Luca
