HI thanks for replying and helping. I've now ran the UPS down a few times from full charge to test and I don't think it's the batteries or a problem with the UPS itself. I can watch it go from 100% right down to 1% over 20 minutes etc and then the power gets so low that everything just powers off! I think it's down to Nut not actually shutting down my server that is my problem...

Hi I hope someone can please help. I have an Ubuntu Server running 14.04.3 LTS and using an APC ES550 UPS connected via USB. I've installed Nut and can see it does monitor the UPS correctly and give the correct stats with battery percentage etc. But on doing a "real" test and unplugging the UPS from the power supply, after watching the battery drop slowly suddenly the server just

HI again, Sorry I didn't mean to cause a security debate. I'd like things to be secure of course, but I've got a dilema that I don't use DHCP and instead have a block of static IPs from my ISP. So my nut server has 68.68.452.02 for example and my two slave clients have 68.68.452.03 and .04 ideally I'd like to allow access for the whole static IP block to access the nut

Hi thanks for all the help with this. I may have now resolved this and got things working... All I've ended up doing is making the slave the master and the master the slave! They now connect! What is strange though is that one machine is Ubuntu and one is Debian - with Debian as the Master things work no problem, without needing anything in hosts.allow at all. And Ubuntu is quite happy as

Hi can anyone please help. I have two linux servers both with static IPs not using NAT. My slave can't connect to my host. Whatever I try. I have the same setup also on my LAN with two other machines and they talk to each other and work great. But my two machines with their own static IPs don't want to play. I've used the same settings for these as I have on my LAN, with a master

Hi can anyone please help. Although I have two servers in the same cabinet/room and sharing the same UPS - they're on different networks. I've tried everything I can find online, but whatever I do I can't get the slave nut client to connect to the master. When testing then on the same LAN, they DO work - but how do I allow the IP of the slave to connect to the master when both on

Hi thanks for the reply. I installed Nut via apt-get, not from source (which I'd rather stick with if possible just for ease of security updates etc) - so I'm not too sure if TCP wrappers are there or available... This could be the problem, am I still able to add the wrappers in with prebuilt packages? Thanks very much once again. :) On 24 November 2016 at 21:51, Roger Price <roger

Hi thanks Roger, I've amended my hosts.allow file to your suggested one - thanks for that. I'm still getting "Connection refused on the client cgi screen as well as in the shell it gives me UPS upsname at ipaddresshere is unavailable... Any ideas what I can try next to debug why it's not working. Also should the "allowfrom = clientIPaddresshere" line be in my monuser

Hi thanks for helping. I don't think nut is built with TCP wrappers support, although the package is listed as depending on libwrap... I ran this command: ldd /sbin/upsd | grep libwrap.so and it has returned no output. Does this mean I have to compile from source or is there a way to add the tcp wrapper support? Thanks again.

Hi thanks Roger. Well I'm just using Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS I only ran that command as a few guides say that's how to establish if a daemon is compiled with tcp wrappers: https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/tcp-wrappers-hosts-allow-deny-tutorial/ I haven't really used TCP wrappers before so I'm not even sure if my hosts.allow entries are correct: upsd : ipaddressofclientgoeshere ups
