Hello everybody,

would be nice to have optional everyday scheduled e-mail notifications to admins email with log-file, bandwidth distribution, connected hosts, etc.

It would be good features. I am for the request.

wouldn't this just be a cron job you could configure?

and how can it be configured?
Do you have any ressource I can find a How-To or similar?
Would be greatly appreciated

This e-mail notification is the only thing I am missing right now with Gargoyle. Everything else is just great!

Use this code to gather data and save it into a file:
It creates file /tmp/email-log.txt in which you can find Web usage history, logs, DHCP leases and ARP records. Now all you have to do is to install some e-mail package like msmtp or mini-sendmail and use it to send this file to your email. Then you can just use cron to repeat this.

I can develop a plugin if enough people want this function.

I really want to thank you!
At the moment I don't know how to set up the rest, but this will definitely help me to read further.
Anyway, a Plugin would be really appreciated!

I think it would be nice to have (mean as plugin)

I have a Buffalo 600 series dual-band router. Would what you propose here in this posting fit in the memory therein?

I would like to have cron in the router run a regular ping of another site and email/text me if it goes down.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes I would like to have this email sending info (Bandwidth usage, search, etc) in a scheduler as a Plug-in.
