Compare Linux Boxes
Linux is most certainly not my strong suit so, my apologies if this is a basic question however, I need to compare the entire file structure (directories and physical files) between a production server and a development server. Preferably I would like to be able to export this to something like a csv so that I can compare the two.

Exported to text files and then used DiffCompare on a windows box to generate an Excel report with the differences.
Production server:
# find /directory_to_compare > production_list.txt
Development server:
# find /directory_to_compare > development_list.txt
After this, you can compare both files (*_list.txt) with a properly tool.
In command line, can be "diff" (the output is not very friendly). In window environment, you have a lot of options...
