Christopher:

Hi. You should probably have a look at kqueue. 'man kqueue' will get you started. It won't (to my knowledge)
tell you about the process that changed the folder, but there are a couple of levels of granularity for examining
~how~ it changed.

If you need more help with it, send me an email, I have some code that might help out.
