The main purpose of Dazuko is for "file access control". Although you
can use Dazuko for monitoring, that is probably overkill. For
monitoring, inotify is probably the best choice. The only difficulty
with inotify is that it is not recursive. That is not necessarily a
problem, but it is something to be aware of.
