For fine-tuned control, perhaps auditd.

There's devel/gamin.


Thanks for the answer.
AFAICT gamin is a library; from there I'd need to develop some daemon, 
provide rc scripts, etc...


My question was whether such a thing already exists.

Monitor directory and execute script

2011-11-07 Thread Andrea Venturoli

Hello.

I need to check for new or updated files in a directory and execute a 
script on them whenever that happens.
Before I launch on complicated scripting, is there some 
utility/port/deamon that already does this?
