Will check Windows \serversharepathfile type addresses, but you may need to alter the NRPE Service privilege to do so.
Return the basename of the file with the time date information as well as the type of time it checked.
Usage: check_fileage.py -f /mount/path/file.ext -w nnnn -c nnnn C|M -V -h
Tested on Window W2K3 and XP, and Centos 4.4 using Python 2.5

Thanks for the script.
I had an additional requirement where a missing file is OK.
I therefore extended the script with the optional parameters -x or -X to define the response on missing files.
-x, --fail-on-not-exists
Returns WARN if the file does not exist.
-X, --ok-on-not-exists
Returns OK if the file does not exist.
If somebody is interested in that, you can find it here: https://github.com/ursjoss/check_fileage
