The NUT protocol has been backwards-compatible for 17 years (since NUT 1.4), so 
I would hope that Java has aged as gracefully. I tend not to use Java for these 
sorts of projects, so I am probably not a good judge of whether it would be 
better to update the jNut codebase, or start from scratch.

As mentioned in the jNut README*, the Java library does not support SSL/TLS. 
That said, NUT's upsd does not have a way to require the STARTTLS command, so 
for a remote installation, you may want to consider a VPN, or a web API behind 
HTTP+TLS.
