The good news:
While gathering information for this post, I solved the ORIGINAL problem
I was going to post about, which was figuring out how to change the
low-battery limit on my CyberPower PR3000LCDRTXL2U UPS with expansion
chassis. With three battery packs, the default 20% is absurd.
However, during the course of finally getting around to getting
upsdet.cgi working, I found the security advice in upsset.conf to be
highly outdated.
upsset.conf gives the following access restriction syntax ...
# <Files upsset.cgi>
# deny from all
# allow from your.network.addresses
# </Files>
This syntax is long obsolete, at least in Apache. It should currently
be done in a fashion generally similar to this:
ScriptAlias /upsstats.cgi /usr/share/nut/cgi/upsstats.cgi
ScriptAlias /upsset.cgi /usr/share/nut/cgi/upsset.cgi
<Directory "/usr/share/nut/cgi">
Options +Includes +ExecCGI
AllowOverride Limit
<RequireAny>
Require local
Require ip aa.bb.cc.dd/nn
</RequireAny>
</Directory>
