for a migration project, one of our apps uses a cron to read log files & update a table with submitted jobs. it's pretty straight fwd pattern matching, as long as you know the pattern. *nothing* at cups.org advertises what you should expect in the log file when you submit a job, just 7 various log levels (error - debug2).
so, on solaris you'd see this in /var/lp/logs/requests (or whatever's in your .conf for syslog)
anyone running RHEL, or any other flavor that uses cups?
