[PLUG] System Bell - Beep!


Greets PLUGgers,

Does anyone know how to ring a system bell, a beep w/o additional software? I've
tried:

echo -n -e "\a"  and  echo -n -e "\007"

but neither of these are working --even for systems which ring bells on other
calls.


I want to work this into a BB monitoring alert.

Cheers,
-zeek
