D-STAR Gateway Registration Notification

ICOM G2 Gateway user registration notification via Pushover or email

Background

D-STAR users are often frustrated when they submit registration requests and admins don't get back to them quickly. This script will enable you to receive direct pushover notifications to your smart phone, as well as email notifications to your mailbox, when a new user registers on your system. In order to use Pushover notifications, you must first sign up for them here: Pushover

You will need to establish your own personal User key/token. You may optionally create your own Pushover Service token, or use the one that I have already defined (aiHaw7A5J8aqcZjDhoH7M8JYu8ghN9). Pushover notifications are limited to 7500 notifications per month.

Pre-requisites

Gateway system must have Perl pre-installed. It is typically already installed on CentOS.
You must have already established a Pushover account and have a User Key established.
