Is there a way to have LANSweeper dig into "C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts" and see if there are any custom DNS entries?

For the sake of someone who may google this, so far I've done the following:

- Began scanning files, and added "%windir%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts"
- Began rescanning the entire network
- While that was brewing, made a custom report to list any machines with that file not equaling the size of a hosts file with no entries (!= 824)

I used these two links to make the report:
https://www.lansweeper.com/knowledgebase/report-based-on-file-information/
https://www.lansweeper.com/Forum/yaf_postsm39292_Properties-of-a-file-submitted-for-custom-file-scanning.aspx#post39292

If anyone has a more eloquent way of doing this, let me know
