Thanks Charles/Kjell, I installed from the RPMS. If I use -u root seems to find the UPS. How do I make it work? (single host)

I would suggest leaving it as "auto" to avoid confusion later on. Which version of NUT are you using? Did you compile from source, or are you using RPMs from FC5? In the source code, there is a directory called either scripts/hotplug-ng or scripts/udev. Please follow the instructions there. Alternatively, you can test with "-u root" on the driver command line, but this is less secure. -- - Charles Lepple -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. -- No virus found in this incoming message.
