Problem with filewatcher...

Hi everyone,
Please find the script for Filewatcher rule file,which does the simple job of moving the files whenever it dectects to another directory.And whenever it detects the cmd_mm.stop file,it should terminate the job.

INTERVAL 60

ON_FILEWATCH ${HLD}/CMD/* CREATE 0 1 2 0400 5
THEN
DO_CMD mv ${HLD}/CMD/* ${HLD}/CMD_SCRIPTS
ELSE
DO_CMD echo "File not detected."
END_ON

#The following command watches for stop file to terminate the job for the day.
ON_FILEWATCH ${HLD}/CMD/cmd_mm.stop CREATE 0 0 30 0400 31
THEN
DO_CMD rm ${HLD}/CMD/cmd_mm.stop
DO_OK
END_ON


Now the problem is that creation of cmd_mm.stop file of zero size doesn't seem to terminte the job.The job simply moves cmd_mm.stop file to ${HLD}/CMD_SCRIPTS directory and carries on and on with filewatching.
(Note:cmd_mm.stop file is of zero size.)
Thoughts plz?
Thanks for all the solutions that I've got from experts of this forum.

faxq(1) 						       mgetty+sendfax manual							   faxq(1)

NAME
faxq - display fax jobs queued by faxspool(1) SYNOPSIS
faxq [<command>] [-osa] [-v] [-r] [-P<job><prio>] DESCRIPTION
Display the fax queue set up by faxspool(1). faxq looks for all the jobs queued by faxspool(1) to /var/spool/fax/outgoing/*. For each job in the queue, faxq displays some status infor- mations about it. If no options are specified, one line per queued fax job is printed, displaying the job number, sender, number of pages and target fax number. COMMANDS
faxq stop stops the fax queue processing by creating the file /var/spool/fax/outgoing/stop. This command works only if you have write access to the spool directory. Depending on local setup, this means ``root only'' or ``fax administrator group''. If you don't have write access, an error message is printed. faxq start re-starts a previously stopped fax queue, by removing the ``stop'' file. As for faxq stop this only works if you have write access. OPTIONS
-v Tells faxq to print a more verbose report for each job (multiple lines). -o Show old jobs, already sent but still in the queue directory, too. -s Show suspended jobs (stopped because of too many fatal errors during sending). You can restart those jobs with faxq -r -a Show all jobs (active, old, suspended). -r Restart suspended jobs. Every suspended job in the queue (that you have write permissions for) will be requeued. Use faxrm to delete jobs that you do not want to be sent! -P <job> <prio> Change the priority of fax job <job> to <prio>. Example: "faxq -P F000247 3". BUGS
faxq doesn't handle time scheduling yet. faxq -P is currently broken (needs re-implementing with faxq-helper). SEE ALSO
