I figured it out. It's a pretty obscure software problem. The file /etc/inittab contains this line: co:12345:respawn:/sbin/agetty ttyS0 9600 vt100-nav That causes an unkillable agetty process to run on the serial port, setting it to 9600 baud. Once I got rid of that, the communication began to work as it should. This line wasn't there in clones of Red Hat Enterprise 4. It seems to be a version 5 addition. Now I'm trying out the manufacturer's software again to see if I can live with it. _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
