Roger, just to make sure that I understand what you're asking, let me start
by describing how I access the NUT server:
1. As the NUT server is already powered on it has completed its start up
sequence.
2. On my Mint20 linux I start PuTTy in SSH and attach to the server which
is at 192.168.1.100.
3. Then on the terminal session that PuTTy starts I log on to the RPi:
username, password.
4. At that point I'm ready to start issuing commands. This is where and
when I'd issue the script command that you have offered.
I guess I'm not understanding what "your server setup command"
should be.
I looked at the manpage for script - I'm still learning all this - and
understand what the script command is to do in capturing terminal activity.
The -c argument is looking for "your server setup command"; that's
where I
am stumped.
Thanks much.
Bill Cole
