This is for Linux boxes...

Is where all of our plugins are at, if you want to search around

Thanks for your reply - I'd had a mooch through the Plugins library previously, and as I hadn't found anything, I just through it might have been me being less than effective, so I was wondering if someone here might have had any ideas or recommendations.

I've had another look and i still haven't found anything, though..!

Have a good weekend

Hm. Have a read through this thread. People more knowledgeable than me have posted there

Apologies for the late reply - thanks for coming back to me.

I think that Nagios possibly isn't the best tool for this type of operation, as it needs some sort of database to store the details of all the files you're checking, so that it has something to compare against.

Sorry that Nagios isn't the best solution for that issue.

I'll lock 'er up.
