Yes, you should just need to edit the file.

What browser are you using? I couldn't get it to work on Firefox, but it worked fine on Chrome. Every time I loaded the status.cgi page, and a service was in warning state -- it played the sound.

@tgriep posted another addon you can use, that will work with Firefox. I don't believe so, as long as your machine can play .wav files.

As I mentioned, you need to use direct file names not full paths. It isn't expecting a full path.

Yes, this is how it works. It plays a sound if there are any warning / critical alerts on your system at all. When everything is at an OK status, you can leave the browser open and when something switches to warning / critical it'll play the sound as the page refreshes.

I don't see any options aside from just specifying the sound files to use, and whether to play sounds. There does not appear to be anything regarding a repeat frequency.
