As a Telenor mobile subscriber, you have the possiblity to send SMS messages via their website. Also, for as long as I can remember, the first 30 messages each month are free.

This is a simple script I made to simplify the process. Instead of having to log-in to post a message, why not do it from the command-line.

Shell Script

The shell script utilizes wget for the web-requests and has some sanitation, error, and debugging functionality. Please feel free to alter the script and give me suggestions for improvements.

#!/bin/sh
# Telenor Send SMS Script - by ivc
#
# Settings
username=<your telenor cellnumber>
password=<account password>
debug=false


# Reset of the script, no editing needed
tonumber=$1
message=`echo $@|sed -e 's/'"$tonumber"' //g' -e 's/ /%20/g'`
cookiesfile=telenor_cookies.txt

echo -e "\n Telenor Send SMS Shell Script - by ivc\n"

# Some sanitation
if [ -z `which wget` ]; then echo -e "  wget binary is missing or is not in the path, install wget and get back to the script.\n"; exit; fi;
if [ -z $1 ] || [ -z $2 ]; then echo -e "  Missing arguments!\n\n  Usage: $0 <number> <text message>\n  E.g. $0 99933322 Hi m8, bouldering today?\n"; exit; fi

# Debug mesages and setup
if [ $debug == true ]; then echo "  Sending message \"$message\" to number $tonumber"; fi


# Login

--post-data="j_username=$username&j_password=$password&fromweb=undefined" https://telenormobil.no/minesider/login.do`

if [ $debug == true ]; then echo "$login"; fi

loginsuccessful=`echo $login|grep "$username"`
toomanyattempt=`echo $login|grep "sperret"`

if [ -n "$loginsuccessful" ]; then echo -e "  Successfully logged in...";
elif [ -n "$toomanyattempt" ]; then echo -e "  Server reports too many failed attempts, try again in 30 minutes.\n"; exit;
else echo -e "  Failed to log in, check the username and password!\n"; exit; fi


# Send SMS

if [ $debug == true ]; then echo "$sendsms"; fi

sendsmssuccessful=`echo $sendsms|grep "$tonumber"`

if [ -n "$sendsmssuccessful" ]; then echo -e "  Message sent to $tonumber!\n"; else echo -e "  Failed to send message, try again later.\n"; exit; fi


# Delete cookies file
