monitor directory size?

[Bill Jacqmein]

HP,

     Lets take the easier route. nsclient++ (
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=131326) added checks
for Filesize since this thread started.
     checkout http://nscplus.medin.name/index.php/CheckFileSize

Hope this is helpful,

     Bill
