[Nut-upsuser] Problems getting reading from UPS with nut 2.0.2
Problems getting reading from UPS with nut 2.0.2 Debian Sid
I know that the server starts running and accepts incoming connections, it can
verify the username and password but refutes that the UPS lives at localhost,
what am I doing wrong ?
I have read and reread both the official documentation and various guides
around the net I am unsure where to go now.
If the UPS itself is at fault (not supported model) then I would have expected
something else.
There now follows hopefully more information a than you could ever need.
(any notes that are not part of the original output have been prefixed with a
double hash
