Hi Rusty,

is it possilbe for you to write a Windoze Script to check if there ist 
something in your dir? CMD, Perl, whatever...

Then you can use the NRPE (http://www.nagiosexchange.org/NRPE.77.0.html) 
for NT (AFAIK not only NT) for you.

Nagios connect to the NRPE_NT, NRPE executes some local Scripts and 
gives the results back to Nagios.

Your self-made check has to answer correctly, read more about writing 
own plugins under:

Hope this helps

Hendrik
