rebuilding NUT on Centos 6.x, but I suspect you can install the SRPM, drop in a
newer NUT tarball, update the .spec file, and rebuild. Centos 7 has NUT 2.7.2 in
EPEL, I believe.
Erm ....
ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/source/SRPMS/n/nut-2.7.3-6.fc24.src.rpm
? And where do I get a .spec file?

Otherwise, the OL status is just reflecting the default state of the floating
pins coming into the motherboard serial port.
So using the genericups driver is pointless?

Yes I read that avidly but fruitlessly.
