After I clicked send, immediately after I clicked send, I realized
that it was a perl module. That's the only nut package I came up with,
when I searched with yum, so I didn't have the proper search terms.

Thank you! I feel better about not finding the packages for nut,
when I searched with yum! :-) I hope apcupsd will work with
this UPS, if I can configure it properly.
I will try apcupsd again. What should I change in the config for apcupsd?
Just a little bit of knowledge, which is what I have about Linux, can
be *extremely* dangerous.... I had come up with the idea that I might
need to "roll" my own package(s) for nut, but I will really need to
RFM before even thinking about trying to do that, because I'm not sure
what that involves.... I have 2 books: "Running Linux" and "Red Hat
Fedora and Enterprise Linux 4 Bible" which probably will explain that,
along with the CentOS Wiki. The development tools are installed on
this box, if I need them to do that.
Joe: Thank you very much. And you called me "son". Who is older? :-) Lanny
