I don't understand exactly what you mean, but you need to add it both to client-local.cfg and to hobbit-clients.cfg. Both these files are located on the Xymon server. Client-local.cfg tells the client to send information about that directory to the Xymon server, and hobbit-clients.cfg tells the server what to alert on in that information.
