Try: ¡Salud! - Greetings or ¡Salud, amigos! - Greetings, friends!

For the common "hello", try: ¡Hola!

Salud is used when some people is sharing "beers" haha (at least in my country) and I've never heard the word "Salutación", I didn't even know that there was a word like this :o - Vicente1, Jul 2, 2011
Oh my goodness...when sharing beers?! Ah, that's not what I meant, jaja. - SonrisaDelSol, Jul 2, 2011
In the dictionary here, it says, "¡Salud, camaradas!" means, "Greetings, comrades!". - SonrisaDelSol, Jul 2, 2011
I don't know if it's the same in other countries, but at least in Chile, people say that when they're sharing beers .. special situations, special people, etc .. like "'¡Brindis!" - Vicente1, Jul 2, 2011
I think the word you are looking for is "saludos". - gintar77, Jul 2, 2011

I've never heard anyone use salud as a greeting. I have heard salud used this way: saluda a su esposa de mi parte, which I usually respond with something like gracias, lo haré. One will usually hear buenos días or hola or ¿Cómo amaneciste? or something like that as a greeting. Just like it's already been mentioned, it's very common to use salud in a toast.
