I've got 2.0.3 running on my XServe under 10.4.5, but I had to put a serial adapter on the USB port instead of using a direct USB connection. With the direct USB connection, the OS X native UPS solution took precedence.

Anyone know how to prevent the OS X UPS handler from taking over on a USB connection?

PS - on my 10.4 install I put the startup in rc.local as the Startup items (even with it set to Last) didn't have enough things going to have it work.

Are you starting it from the rc file?

But then the question is how do I make sure that at shutdown time its the last StartupItem to get run, and that when it is run the filesystems are synced and read only.

Good question - I don't know if you even get that level of control with launchd.

I'm using an APC SmartUPS 3000. The reason I'm using nut instead of the built in OS X stuff is that I need to shutdown a few othr machines (mac and linux) that also get power from the UPS.

The meta-driver idea that I was describing could work here - after
catching the low-battery event, the driver could stall the OS from
shutting down until the slave systems were notified.
