FAM was designed to only monitor 1 level deep, so it won't (for
instance) notify of all files that change on the entire filesystem
by simply monitoring the root filesystem.

I can't think of an easy way to do this with FAM, but I'd like to
think that it could be done.

Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.
