i tried with the -I, including the .0 - no change in output. With debug, no
messages are displayed..

I also tried using the "-n" option, with the notification type being
specified followed by -n, and nothing else, however i get an "Error: unable
to parse an object oid"
also i tried changing the monitor test ot a "!=OID"
and i get "Error: unable to parse oid !=bitCurrentState.0"

I tried all combinations of spacing, removing the -I and .0 etc... it still
gives those errors and no notifications...

I'm running with v5.4 (disman is built in), I can receive the coldstart
trap.. I just have no idea why its not firing
