Here is what I would do if stuck without modules on the unix side. Use the Cygwin perl install with HTML::LinkExtractorand URI to create a list of relative files on the webserver. Save that as a text file. Move the text file over to the unix box where you make a script that loads the text file into a hash and then finds the files in the DocumentRoot. have a sub that fixes the File::Find::name to match the relative paths in the text file data and then compare the var with the hash. if you have a match the file is active. If you do not the file is not. If you must run this more than once get your lazy admin to install the modules you need on the server. =)
