I have never used NUT before, I just knew it existed. Apcupsd has
always done what I need but I would check the logs, I have no doubt
they would show what is wrong. Have made any initial config?
Check http://eu1.networkupstools.org/doc/2.2.0/README.html
Read the FAQ:
    Once the config files are ready, start upsd:
    # /usr/local/ups/sbin/upsd -u nutsrv
    Check your syslog

Look here: http://www.apcupsd.com
And here is a possible config:

You need to write a spec file, then use rpmbuild to make the rpm.
Google should hopefully provide the guidance this needs, you can
also ckeck the spec from any src.rpm file you can get by extracting
the contents: rpm2cpio example.src.rpm | cpio -dimv
The look for the spec.

Ps. My guess you:)
