Remote Notification is an Add-In for the Microsoft Windows Home Server operating system. It is designed to forward the System Health Notifications from the Home Server to an email address. This can be particularly useful when configured to send to an email address that forwards an SMS (text message) to the user’s mobile phone.

Remote Notification should intercept all WHS notification events, even those issued by other 3rd party Add-ins, as long as those Add-ins use the documented WHS SDK to add notifications.

Remote Notification consists of a WHS Settings tab for configuration, a Windows Service for receiving the Notifications and sending the messages, a RemoteNotification.dat file for storing persistant data, a handful of registry entries, and this README file. Some debug information is written to the Application Event Log on the Server; you’ll need to use Remote Desktop to view these entries.

    Remote notification has worked flawlessly, reporting loss of port forwarding (typically my ISP having service issues) and UPS events (I was able to tell the local power company that they had a tree limb being blown against the power lines close by)

    Cool, I’m thinking Growl/Prowl support would be a really good fit for this as well.
