I know how to ping in Perl. That is easy. What I am wondering is if there is a way for Perl to determine whether the ping was successful or not. Or do I need to save the results out and parse the results seperately looking for the #of tries and successful revieves.
Thanks. (1 Reply)

Trying to find out how to discover if the first 2 characters of a string are "22"
Not sure how.
I could use

But I think that will only grab the pattern 22 and not the first 2 digits. (5 Replies)

faxrm(1) mgetty+sendfax manual faxrm(1)
NAME
faxrm - remove fax jobs queued by faxspool(1)
SYNOPSIS
faxrm [-i] [job-ids...]
DESCRIPTION
Remove job(s) from the fax queue set up by faxspool(1).
faxrm removes queued fax jobs. Call with a list of job-IDs to remove specific jobs. Call with no job IDs to be asked interactively about
all jobs you own (if run by root, all jobs). For job-id, use the strings returned by faxq(1) (e.g. F000015), without the ``/JOB'' exten-
tion.
If you are not the owner of the fax job (as per the 'user xyz' statement inside the JOB file), you are not allowed to remove the fax job.
Only root is permitted to remove another user's faxes.
If the job is locked (most likely because sendfax(8) is active sending it), faxrm doesn't attempt to remove it. Instead, it prints a warn-
ing message on stderr and goes on to the next job.
EXAMPLES
faxrm F000005 F000033
OPTIONS
-i (interactive mode) Tells faxrm to ask for confirmation before removing the job (UNIMPLEMENTED).
BUGS
faxrm doesn't return diagnostic exit codes yet.
SEE ALSO
