You shouldn't need the include statement, not sure if that's throwing it off? Did you restart xymon so it can pick up the new task file, and is it readable by the xymon user?
Anything in the logs or /var/log/xymon/reboot.log? /var/log/xymon/reboot.log should exist as soon as the xymon server is restarted.

Quoting Scot Kreienkamp <Scot.Kreienkamp at la-z-boy.com>:
On my server (RedHat based, so YMMV) I generally put a file in /etc/xymon/tasks.d, one file for each external script. Same format as for clientlaunch though.
Okay, I created a file, called /etc/xymon/tasks.d/reboot, with this content:
==========
[reboot] ENVFILE /usr/lib/xymon/server/etc/xymonclient.cfg CMD /usr/lib/xymon/server/ext/ufadiff.sh LOGFILE /var/log/xymon/reboot.log INTERVAL 5m
include /var/run/xymon/clientlaunch-include.cfg
==========
But, still no joy.
Cheers,
Jaap
