Shrek:
I understand your preference is to use the apcupsd utility instead of the supplied nut package.
yes i *had* both running for testing apcupsd is easyer to setup and works now for ~1 year without any problems smartupss-ttyS0 on rhl 7.2/8.0 / suse 7.1 / freebsd 4.6.2 / m$-win*
I did already look at this site, and it is touting software that was built for version 7.1 and 7.2 of Red Hat.
clean your glasses ;-)
eg. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/apcupsd/apcupsd-3.10.5-1_rh8_usb.i386.rpm
do you know the differences between sources - source.rpms - rpms ? eg. http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/apcupsd/apcupsd-3.10.5.tar.gz
Also, it appears that the documentation supplied on the site you mentioned is geared towards serial connections only - I only have a USB connection.
clean your glasses once again ;-)
I'd like some help trying to get this to work with the nut suite, and the supplied /etc/rc.d/init.d/ups script. Any suggestions? Thanks.
$ rpm -qi nut $ rpm -qc nut $ rpm -ql nut ...
$ man upsd $ man upsd.conf ...
sorry,
i think that i have an
