I had not as it wasn't apparent to me from the man page what exactly was 
required for this to work. I have since added a user, but still see no
indication it's running from the script itself or doing a truss on the 
snmpd process. Here's what I have now. I am not getting any authentication
failures sent out, so what else might be missing? Thanks.

createUser testuser
agentSecName testuser
rouser testuser noauth
monitor -u testuser -r 1 -o nsExtendOutput1Line.\"failure\" "Failure Check" nsExtendResult.\"failure\" != 0
