daemon.  I have been burned in the past with incorrect permissions set on
the sms binary, etc to where the notification went out fine as root, but
when nagios actually went to try it as the nagios user, it did not have
rights.  Also we use some groundworks and its tests use the nobody user
which adds another user that we had to deal with, etc...
