Thanks much for the suggestion. Hmmm ... in theory that'd work. Something about it makes me uncomfortable though. Just feels like monitoring a specific count of files will wind up being more precise and correct than the directory mod time. Anyway, I've been taking a look at the "check_file" plugin on Monitoring Exchange, and it looks like that might fit the bill.
