Please be more specific about "loss of communication". There are three key connections: upsmon-to-upsd, upsd-to-driver, and driver-to-UPS. If upsmon loses the connection to upsd, or the driver loses the connection to the UPS, upsmon should not shut down unless the last status message received was "OB". > As I said, thanks to all the help I received from Charles Lepple, I was able > to get this UPS working, and it has worked fine for many months.

Please resend them, minus any passwords. Also, from the last email thread: "Another thing: we recently discovered that some Yahoo anti-spam measures result in mass unsubscription of non-Yahoo email users of these lists [this happens after a number of Yahoo emails are received in a certain time window].
