i'm trying to use system() to run ptal-pml to retrieve pml values from
hp printers; my problem is how to redirect the system() output. the
variations i've tried with backticks or qx// are not accomplishing
anything useful - i get either a numeric value or an empty string. this
is the command i'm running:
$system_results = system("usr/bin/ptal-pml hpjd:$ip get-$type $value");
can someone detail the proper syntax i need in order for $system_results
to receive the correct output? or better still, the syntax to redirect
to a file (i do have a filehandle open and closed appropriately).
thanks,
joe
