I have NUT installed and running quite happily with a APC Smart 1000 UPS on a CENTOS4 based SME V7 server (www.smeserver.org) Installed versions are as follows : nut-client-2.0.3-pre2_sme6 nut-2.0.3-pre2_sme6 I realise these are not the latest versions but everything is fine apart from messages flooding /var/log/messages every minute as follows : Nov 9 11:08:01 esmith upsd[9923]: Connection from 127.0.0.1 Nov 9 11:08:01 esmith upsd[9923]: Client on 127.0.0.1 logged out Nov 9 11:09:00 esmith upsd[9923]: Connection from 127.0.0.1 Nov 9 11:09:00 esmith upsd[9923]: Client on 127.0.0.1 logged out The configuration files look standard. Does anyone have any idea how to prevent these messages ? B. Rgds John Crisp
