I am trying to use the agent.conf on the server to push out client
specific rules for each of my hosts.  I am specifically looked at
configuring specific realtime integrity checking for directories.  I
have configured the agent.conf file as:

<agent_config name="system1">
<localfile>
<syscheck>
<directories realtime="yes" check_all="yes">D:\TEST</directories>
</syscheck>
</localfile>
</agent_config>

<agent_config name="system2">
<localfile>
<syscheck>
<directories realtime="yes" check_all="yes">D:\TEST2</directories>
</syscheck>
</localfile>
</agent_config>

The shared agent.conf file is successfully updated on the client
machines, but i do not see any indication that these directories are
being monitored correctly.  If I place the realtime <directories></
directories> tags directly in the ossec.conf files on the hosts, I can
see the ossec.log file indicate the monitoring, but the current
agent.conf configuration does not seem to be working.  I have verified
that the agent name is correct.

Have I implemented the agent.conf parameters correctly?
Should I see the ossec.conf file be updated with the values in the
shared agent.conf?

Thanks in advance...
