Here is what I have in /usr/local/etc/gamin/gaminrc: poll /usr/home/wblock/Desktop/* poll /* # fsset ufs poll 10 fsset ufs poll 10 That did not do what I'd hoped, which was not lock those directories or files. It seems to have had the effect of disabling gamin entirely, which I've just lived with. The first line is the one that should work. The last one (I think) tells gamin to poll all UFS filesystems. But again, this did not work as expected.
