I know Windows is not the same, but I have mine run via the task scheduler so  
it's not real-time. 

Perhaps similar?

My batch file is as follows:

CALL NETWORK1
CALL NETWORK2
CALL NETWORK /N1 .0 
NETWORK /N1 .0 --v=3
CALL NETWORK /N2 .1
REM CALL NETWORK /N32767 .2 /A /P707-585-NEWS /S57600 /T993228415 .2 
CALL NETWORK1
CALL NETWORK2
CALL BBS.EXE /N10 /E

I can't recall why I started calling network1 & 2 twice though... Oh!  Maybe to 
 process any pending packets after polling?

I suppose you could find a tool for Linux that watches your folder for the  
creation of the files and toss them when seen?
