Is realtime available for your mystery platform? Are you sure it was
compiled in? Do you see log messages about realtime monitoring?

Don't change this. It'll be lost during an upgrade.

Add the following rule to local_rules.xml instead of ossec_rules.xml.

Has a syscheck scan already run? I'm not sure new file alerts will
fire if there isn't a baseline.
Did you try adding the file and forcing a rescan? Maybe realtime isn't
working for this.
