I'm calling it from the ruleset, and i have tested it both by waiting for an
event and by sending a trap manually, it's the same result

How are you calling ovexcho -- from the automatic action of trap definition
in trapd.conf  or from the action in a ruleset?
How are you testing it?  Do you have a script calling the snmptrap command
or the event command or do you just wait for the event?

I use ovxecho to display popup windows on certain alerts, the problem is i
get 3 pop windows / alert, i made a test and discovered that netview called
my bash-script 3 times, why? =)
