Exclamation script to monitor files in a directory and sending the alert

Hi All,

We are having important config files in an directory which was accessable by all
/auto/config/Testbed/>ls
config1.intial
config2.intial
config3.inital

often we find that some of the lines are missing in config files, we doubt if some one is removing.

I would like to write a shell script to monitor all the files, and it should alert via mail if some one altered the content of the config file. Mail should inform who has altered the content and diff of the content.

Your comments are highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Parkkavan(shell scripter)
