I have a Dell PE 2850 connected via 940-0024C cable to serial port on the UPS mentioned above. I've used apt-get to install nut-2.0.2-3 and attempted to configure based on the documentation. So far I'm getting the following when I try to start ups daemon: server:/etc/ups # /etc/init.d/ups start Starting service NUT: -> Starting UPS driver: Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.0.2 Network UPS Tools (version 2.0.2) - APC Smart protocol driver Driver version 1.99.7, command table version 2.0 Detected Smart-UPS RT 3000 XL [NS0545001690 ] on /dev/ttyS0 done -> Starting upsd: Network UPS Tools upsd 2.0.2 done -> Starting upsmon: Network UPS Tools upsmon 2.0.2 UPS: myups@10.133.1.51 (master) (power value 1) Using power down flag file /etc/killpower stat /etc/ups/upsd.conf: No such file or directory Broadcast Message from nobody@server (somewhere) at 15:35 ...

OK I've changed to a different machine as I don't think it install all of nut. Now I'm working with nut-1.2.2 I changed the driver to newapc and it's now finding the RT 3000 correctly.

Anyone have any ideas? Sorry I'm just stuck at this point.>>> "Chris Boyd" <chris@usit.ie> 09/05/06 3:09 >>>OK I've changed to a different machine as I don't think it install all of nut.

I suspected as much. For some reason installing nut using apt didn't dl all the config files. SuSE isn't the greatest with apt (nor YAST). Anyway I copied over the old config files from 1.2.2 server to the 2.0.2 server, changed ACCESS to ACCEPT and shangri la. Thanks a milion>>> "Charles Lepple" <clepple@gmail.com> 09/07/06 2:14 >>>On 9/7/06, Chris Boyd <chris@usit.ie> wrote:> Anyone have any ideas?Not for NUT 1.2, no.
