I'm using this script for a this task, run daily by cron:
#!/bin/sh
tmpfile=${HOME}/.owchange
rm -f ${tmpfile}
find DIRECTORY -name FILENAMEMASK -mtime -1 -ls > ${tmpfile}
if [ -s ${tmpfile} ]; then
cat ${tmpfile} | mail -s "CRON: blablabla was modified" MAILADDRESS
fi
rm -f ${tmpfile}
It's basically a quick hack, but as usual, I never got round to improve
on it... :-)
HTH,
Thomas
