That's correct - the DisMan monitoring relies on an SNMPv3 user
for the internal queries.  That's why the token "iquerySecName"
is described immediately before "monitor" in the man page.
(And mentioned again under '-u' and again after describing the
"linkUpDownNotifications" and "defaultMonitors" tokens).

I'd hoped that this man page was sufficiently clear that a SNMPv3
user was required.   Unfortunately it looks as if I was wrong :-(
OK - I'll try to make this a bit more explicit.
