Hello, I've found the same behavior on RHES 4.5 with nut-2.2.0.
The patch included in the NUT RPMs ( nut-client, or nut ) includes the shutdown procedure too late in the /etc/init.d/halt script. At this moment, all filesystems have been unmounted and access to /sbin/upsdrvctl is no more possible. Test to get this part sooner in the halt script generates a "Permission denied" problem when "including" the file /etc/sysconfig/ups. I'm still looking for an acceptable solution. Ugly workaround : Reducing the procedure to the minimum ( if /etc/killpower then /sbin/upsdrvctl shutdown ) works when put before unmounting the loopback filesystem (still on RHES4.5).
