The "Monitored Directories" section lists the batch:// inputs.
The "Monitored Files" section lists the monitor:// intputs.

So the questions is:
Why am i getting "[No directories monitored.]", when i have :
[root@chef-nonprod-fe1 local]# cat inputs.conf
[default]
[monitor:///var/log/]
[monitor:///var/log/audit/]
[monitor:///var/log/opscode/]
host = chef-nonprod-fe1.a.b.c
[root@chef-nonprod-fe1 local]# pwd
/opt/splunkforwarder/etc/system/local
