Hi abrist,
If you can help with this I would really appreciate this.
I've been using NSCLient++ CheckFile2 but it doesn't check for folders and only check on files.
I really need a plugin that can check folders [the modified times on the folder] in windows
eloyd, thanks for your time and effort.

No worries. Sorry I can't help with the Windows side more. Our customers just don't use Windows.

@v, yeah I've been looking around, I'm not turning up much. If you have someone in house that is handy with powershell, or even batch, you could create a plugin to do this that would be quite simple.
1. Pass a command through that lists the folder(s) and their last modification time
2. Capture that output
3. Check against a warning and critical threshold passed in against the plugin
4. Output exit code and status text for OK, Warning, Critical, Unknown
5. Test from Nagios
6. Call it a day!
