cp -Rv ./baz/ ./bar/ > foo

seems to work here

tom@flying-squirrel:/tmp/foo$ cat foo
`./baz/' -> `./bar/baz'
`./baz/flibb' -> `./bar/baz/flibb'
`./baz/quux' -> `./bar/baz/quux'

Cheers Worked a charm, I wasnt far off I guess!

...what exactly did you do differently? I used your exact command to test.

Just a nudge in case this had slipped your mind.

Im installing nagios just now and all our printers are those HPs pretty much..

Thanks for the nudge I hadn't forgotten I just hadn't got round to doing it yet.

I've posted it up on my blog plextech

Thanks.

How do I go about installing it as a plugin?

[RabbieBurns]

OK this seems to be working.. But how now do I implement it into nagios??

root@nagios:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# php check_hp2600.php -H 10.0.5.101 -c 10 -w 15
TONER OK C:32 M:99 Y:32 K:22

Got it sorted!

I had to add this to commands.cfg

# 'check_hp2600' command definition
define command{
		command_name	check_hp2600
		command_line	php /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_hp2600.php -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -c 10 -w 15
		}

And then in printers.cfg i made a new group called 2600-printers which calls the previous command

define service{
	use			generic-service		; Inherit values from a template
	hostgroup_name		2600-printers		; The name of the host the service is associated with
	service_description	Printer Status		; The service description
#	check_command		check_hpjd!-C public	; The command used to monitor the service
	check_command		check_hp2600	; The command used to monitor the service
	normal_check_interval	10	; Check the service every 10 minutes under normal conditions
	retry_check_interval	1	; Re-check the service every minute until its final/hard state is determined
	}

And then just specified all the printers in host declarations

define host{
	use		generic-printer		; Inherit default values from a template
	host_name	10.0.5.101		; The name we're giving to this printer
	alias		10.0.5.101	; A longer name associated with the printer
	address		10.0.5.101		; IP address of the printer
	hostgroups	2600-printers 	; Host groups this printer is associated with
notifications_enabled	0		; disable emails for this check	
}

I hope this helps someone else
