Perl email notification
Hi there
We are battling with a Perl script to send out email notifications once a certain bandwidth useage has been reached. The script works, but at ever cron job it resends the email. How do I get it to only send once without a flag?

Do you use sql database to store email state? If so it is pretty easy to do. If not create a text file when email was sent first time and use the same as a flag avoid sending email notification.

Sql d/base
Hi there
Thanks very much - I suggested a flag system, but they are reluctant to go that route. We use a sql d/base to look up, and radius is on three servers using rad relay. The flag needs to be removed once they increased their bandwidth cap.

Flag is the best option. Explains them your problem.
