[jdev] Jabber Messaging in system administration

[Federico Lucifredi]

Hello Jdev,
  I am looking for a low-dependancy solution to be able to send 
notification messages on system events from my systems.

  In practice, what I need is a scriprable (Bash, Perl, etc) way to send 
a message to a given recipient.

  Bash would be the best, but given it would have to leverage an 
external component for network access, Perl seems reasonable.

  I remember DJ Adams had some example of this in his book, but I do not 
know what is currently the best way to go about this.

  Suggestions please!

  -Federico
