-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have an old Belkin F6C525-SER ups attached to serial port 1. When "/usr/local/bin/upsdrvctl start" runs, it finds & identifies the ups correctly. Also, no problem when "/usr/local/sbin/upsd" runs. But, when "/usr/local/sbin/upsmon" runs, I get:
Broadcast Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] ((not a tty)) at whatever time run . . . communications lost to the UPS Repeat 1st line (Broadcast etc) A UPS is unavailable (can't be contacted for monitoring) ---- Below are all the pertinent uncommented settings in nuts config files. (snippet from /etc/nut/ups.conf) I've tried entering different labels here, including the actual identification of the ups, F6C525-SER along with anywhere else it's required to match. Didn't help. I assumed this was an arbitrary setting & only mattered in that it has to match in any other config files it's used in.

No difference. Still doesn't work. I may have misunderstood the docs, but there were instructions without a port being appended also. # ------------------------------------------------------------------ MINSUPPLIES 1 # ------------------------------------------------------------------ SHUTDOWNCMD "/sbin/shutdown -h -p +0" # ------------------------------------------------------------------ NOTIFYCMD /usr/local/bin/notifyme.sh # ------------------------------------------------------------------ POLLFREQ 10 # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- POLLFREQALERT 10 # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- HOSTSYNC 15 # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEADTIME 30 # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- POWERDOWNFLAG /etc/killpower # Pertinent script added to /etc/rc.shutdown as per docs # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: I changed each instance of %s to belkinups just like the label in ups.conf # NOTIFYMSG NOCOMM "A UPS is unavailable (can't be contacted for monitoring)" NOTIFYMSG COMMOK "Communications established with UPS" NOTIFYMSG COMMBAD "Communications lost to the UPS" NOTIFYMSG ONLINE "UPS belkinups is getting line power" NOTIFYMSG ONBATT "Someone pulled the plug on belkinups" NOTIFYMSG LOWBATT "UPS belkinups has a low battery" NOTIFYMSG FSD "UPS is being shutdown by the master" # # Note that %s is replaced with the identifier of the UPS in question. # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- RBWARNTIME 43200 # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOCOMMWARNTIME 300 # -------------------------------------------------------------------------- FINALDELAY 5 Just wanted to say that I've read the docs & man pages numerous times & searched extensively through mailing list archives, & experimented with the settings until I ran out of ideas, before asking about this on the list. It's either something I'm missing, misunderstanding, or possibly a peculiarity with my hardware. Any help greatly appreciated.
