Sorry for the late response ... 

Could you give me an example .. I have been struggling to implement the 
hierarchy you mentioned, where one rule would check for - 
"/home/smartbiz/releases"  and the other child looks for "/tmp$".

Perhaps the block of config that i would put in ossec.conf on the agent 
side. 

Hoping for best. 

Thanks
AJ
