...er, if I simulate a shutdown with upsmon -c fsd, the UPS fails to cut power. The normal halt procedure completes, and my machine turns itself off and stays off. The relevant part of the shutdown script is: flag=`sed -ne 's#^ *POWERDOWNFLAG *\(.*\)$#\1#p' /etc/nut/upsmon.conf` wait_delay=`sed -ne 's#^ *POWEROFF_WAIT= *\(.*\)$#\1#p' /etc/default/nut` if [ -f "$flag" ] ; then if $upsmon -K >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then log_action_msg "Shutting down the UPS ..." # log_action_msg "Restarting udev to give USB access" #...

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

I almost had nut_2.0.5-3_i386.deb (from http://packages.debian.org/unstable/admin/nut - installed via dpkg, not via repository) working: * problems with getting it to come up during boot * monitoring via knutclient was OK * shutdown on low battery worked adequately, if not quite as described) and newhidups suddenly stopped talking to my Belkin F6C550-AVR .
