Is there any software or possibility available for sending sms alert when a server goes down.
I need a software that is a freeware and uses a sms gateway ( not Gsm/gprs modem).

Sadly, this is a forums for dealing with a game called Subspace, so you may not get the help you need. I have had to do this before, and used the feature of most cell phone providers where you can have an email be sent to a mobile phone.

SMS through E-Mail: Cingular, Nextel, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, Virgin Mobile

Sending SMS through email is very, very easy. If you can be reminded through email, you can now be reminded through SMS.

I have email reminders sent to me for everything. If you know the correct email address, you can also send these messages to your cellular phone. Here are the email addresses for the 6 most popular cellular phone carriers:

T-Mobile: phonenumber@tmomail.net
Virgin Mobile: phonenumber@vmobl.com
Cingular: phonenumber@cingularme.com
Sprint: phonenumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com
Verizon: phonenumber@vtext.com
Nextel: phonenumber@messaging.nextel.com

where phonenumber = your 10 digit phone number

SMS through email for US Cellular, SunCom, Powertel, AT&T, Metro PCS and Alltel are available here.
