It's incredibly easy to write a Nagios plugin. The only major
requirement is that it return a valid error code so that Nagios can
interpret the results. Something like this would work:
-- start check_file.sh --
#!/bin/sh
# $1 = Full path of filename to watch for
$ERRORCODE=0
if [ -e $1 ]; then
$ERRORCODE=1
fi
exit $ERRORCODE
-- end check_file.sh --
