Nut upsuser - Dec 2006 - ups poweroff with cyberpower text protocol

Hi,
shutting down my CyberPower OP500TE doesn't seem to work.
Does anyone know if it is possible? (if not I will just change the
shutdown script as suggested in the faq, but it would be nice to do the
proper way).

Thanks,

Anton

The cpsups driver badly needs maintenance. The driver has some problems
we can't fix, because there are no active developers for this driver. If
you're willing to take up this task, please do so and join the upsdev
mailinglist. Otherwise I fear that this driver will be dropped from the
tree in a few revisions if this situation is not improved.

We are currently at nut-2.0.4 and nut-2.0.5 is just a matter of days
from release. Please upgrade to the latest released version, before
asking for support. The problem you are experiencing may (or may not) be
fixed already.
