Mail me the df -k output 2

[sirrom]

I have wriiten a small script that does similar to a df -k called dfk
I have placed it on to several of my clients servers.
What do I need to do to get the output of the dfk mailed to me instead of me logging on and collecting say every 5 hours.

Well, you could do this:

run your 'dfk' script and output it to a file, say

dfk > dfkresults.txt

then, add to your script,
-------------snip---------------------
mail -s &quot;dfk results&quot; youremail@address.com < dfkresults.txt
-------------snip---------------------
that should work

hope this helps

This worked, Thanxs

No problem...glad it helped you out

Why not just pipe it directly to your email?

df -k |mail youremail@yourhost.com

That should be all you need.
