hi Arnaud, Thanks for your reply. I'm actually not too worried about this, since (almost) anyone who can log in to our server needs to be physically here to do it. So, they can just press the power button if they really want to.
One of the bosses kids switched off power to the UPS (and server) a few weeks ago. That's when we realized that:- 1: The battery in the UPS was dead. 2: Nobody had ever installed monitoring software. 3: There are too many idiots in the world. Items 1 and 2 have been rectified.
simply try to launch upsdrvctl start and you will see
Are you saying that an unprivileged user cannot execute upsdrvctl shutdown ? That's not easy for me to test without talking some small risk :) But I'll try out some of upsdrvctl's other commands later as a non root user and see what happens.. Thanks again :) Steve.
