Hi, I have an Eaton 5SC UPS with only 1 USB communication port, but... I need 3 devices to safely switch off in case of power failure, 2 Synology NAS and 1 PC under Windows 7 (soon 10)! So I've decided to connect the UPS to the main NAS (via the USB cable), enabled the "Network UPS server" on the NAS, entered the other NAS and PC IP addresses to let them receive NUT messages in case of power failure and now, I need to install a NUT client on the PC.
Problem: I can't find any kind of documentation neither official, not from users on blogs or videos. We can find some for WinNUT. This client has a GUI and looks easy to install and configure. But it's written on networkupstools.org that "WinNUT is a partial port of the client side..." and it's "currently being replaced by a full port to Windows, part of the official NUT distribution."... https://networkupstools.org/projects.html#_a_href_http_csociety_ecn_purdue_edu_delpha_winnut_winnut_a WinNUT is also not maintained any more, the last version is from Feb. 2011... https://code.google.com/archive/p/winnut/downloads So now regarding the official Windows complete port. I've downloaded the .msi and installed it but there's absolutely no settings, neither during the installation, nor when running "Start service" and all the documentation provided (FAQ, Man pages, User manual) looks not related to the Windows version but to Linux versions. There's not a single line regarding the Windows version. So my question is simple: how do we setup a NUT client on Windows? Is there any documentation anywhere? When it's said the complete port replaces WinNUT, does it also has a GUI? Thanks for your help!
