Possible to create action in Kiwi Syslog server that can send syslog message to PageGate and modem that reside on different computer? -Debbi

Yes - With the optional getASCII interface enabled, PageGate can watch multiple files on the network and generate messages based on content

It should be noted, however, that PageGate can't access a modem that isn't connected to its own computer. I wasn't sure if that was part of what you were asking about, though. Just wanted to address it, just in case.

We use getascii for sending our Orion messages from the server where PageGate and the modem reside (servername is Hillsdale).

When I test the action from Kiwi I see a command prompt flash by and it says the action tested good. However, I never get a page. Similarly, when I do the action at the command prompt:
KiwiServer>//hillsdale/Pagegate/sendpage32 debbi MrSender test message
The command prompt flashes by but I never get a page. Is there a log in pagegate that would tell me if the program is even seeing the command? I do not see any file in the pagegate log that has updated when I sent the command. Also, I do not see any Security event log entries indicating a failed login.

Thanks. -Debbi

The getASCII log will show what you need

Are you certain that the getASCII poller is pointing at the file created by Kiwi Syslog? If there is nothing in the log then it means that getASCII didn't see anything - ususlly indicitive of not telling it to look

OK, here is what ended up working. I shared the PageGate folder on my Pagegate/modem box, Hillsdale.
This is the string that worked from the command line on the Kiwi box:

\\hillsdale\pagegate\sendpage32 -dir=\\hillsdale\pagegate debbi MrSender test message

In Kiwi, use the Run External Program action, and under Program Filename put the first stuff:
\\hillsdale\pagegate\sendpage32
Under Command Line Options put the rest: -dir=\\hillsdale\pagegate debbi MrSender test message

Maybe this will help someone else.

Debbi
