Ah. For the time being I set
it up to have everything run as root. Once it's working I'll sort out
the permissions issues. tripplite_usb is recognizing the UPS correctly: Starting tripplite_usb: Network UPS Tools - Tripp Lite OMNIVS and SMARTPRO driver 0.6 (2.1.0) Warning: This is an experimental driver. Some features may not function correctly. Detected a UPS: TRIPP LITE/TRIPP LITE SMART1500RMXL2Ua Using SMARTPRO protocol (3003) Attached to Tripp Lite SMART1500RMXL2Ua But then when upsd starts up it can't seem to communicate with the tripplite_usb driver: Starting upsd: Network UPS Tools upsd 2.1.0 Can't connect to UPS [tripplite] (tripplite): No such file or directory Synchronizing........ giving up The ups.conf file has the following: [tripplite] driver = tripplite_usb port = auto desc = "Tripp-Lite 1500RM XL2U" This is on Fedora Core 4 if it makes a difference.

They key is to start by running the driver with "-u root".I wrote some instructions for APC/newhidups at http://www.mathstat.dal.ca/~selinger/ups/backups.html; they might help. -- Greg Gulik http://www.gulik.org/greg/ greg @ gulik.org |
