Jeff,
Thanks!!
I sort of got it working, other than it complains with "integer expression
expected" on the "if [ $load -gt $#MY_THRESHOLD ] ; then". If I comment out
the whole loop and have it send the current CPU level by itself, without
checking MY_THRESHOLD, it works perfectly... one time only, of course.
Is there a trick to forcing it into treating MY_THRESHOLD as an integer?
Perhaps have to multiply it by 100 to get a full integer, rather than a
decimal value...? If so... how? :-) (yes, I'm a newbie)
Chris
