    Changes to any files in a directory

    Is there a way to monitor a specific folder on a Server that can notify you via email that a file has been changed in that specific folder? We have third parties that have access to our systems in development and they sometimes make changes to files and don't tell us so we would like to get a notification of any changes to any given file in a specific directory.

    Thanks

    I am guessing you could use the same type of key that Zabbix currently uses to see if autoexec.bat or config sys have changed... just change the path and filename

    vfs.file.cksum[c:\autoexec.bat]

    And then you could create a trigger for that, and an action for that trigger, which would in turn send you an alert.

    I am only guessing that would work. That may not be the function fo that key, but looks like it to me.
