OK, can someone tell me what utterly moronic thing I am doing wrong? I have two roughly identical Linux system running NUT, and one works properly. The other almost does. The second system works well once everything is up, but after booting, the system does not have connectivity to the UPS. I have to manually run `upsdrvctl start backup`, `/etc/init.d/nut start`, and `upsd` to get NUT

Nut will monitor the ups and shutdown Linux when the ups goes to low battery as it should. But the UPS is not shut down so the system will restart when the power is restored. If I switch the UPS off , restore power and switch the UPS on the system will restart. I have not been able to get nut to switch the UPS off after it brings the system down. I can get the UPS to switch off with upscmd

So....seems so better... Each time I rebbot, I miss the /var/run/nut folder... root at artu:~# upsdrvctl start Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.7.2 Network UPS Tools - Megatec/Q1 protocol USB driver 0.11 (2.7.2) Can't chdir to /var/run/nut: No such file or directory Driver failed to start (exit status=1) root at artu:~# upsd Network UPS Tools upsd 2.7.2 fopen
