Hi all,

Is it possible with Nagios to check the date of a folder and the age of the oldest file in a folder on a Windows server?

Thanks

Noob. I am using check_nt commands with nsclient++ on the Windows machines to monitor, CPU, disk & memory. All works well. I would like to check directories for age, file count etc and have found a plugin that appears to achieve this: https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/System-Metrics/...
