Hi folks, I'm trying to get NUT installed on an existing F19 server which sits beside my shiney new APC SmartUPS. It's connected using a serial cable on ttyS0. I've found a number of web sites that tell you how to install NUT and get it working, including one that said it worked where others didn;'t - it referred to permissions issues with the RPMs. However, none of the instructions relate to F19 and even after making allowances I still can't get it to work. One thing that was missing was /var/run/ups which was the last thing I created. However, as you can see below, it still doesn't work. I'm hoping eventually to have this server monitor the UPS, and then have all other servers monitor through this server. Can anyone help with getting this working. Ta Gary [root@lou ups]# mkdir /var/run/nut [root@lou ups]# chown root:nut /var/run nut.conf [root@lou ups]# systemctl start nut-driver Job for nut-driver.service failed.
