Wouldn't it just be easier to put a nanny line in the user crontab to fire it up?

I mentioned before that runclient.sh probably won't work with launchd
since it exits, but I imagine you've done more testing since then and
maybe you know something I don't. Also, the section above will run the
command as /Users/xymon/client/runclient.sh /Users/xymon/client/ runclient.sh start. I think you want to omit the Program section and
use only the ProgramArguments as you have it written so it will end up
running just /Users/xymon/client/runclient.sh start.
