Otherwise, I think everything is the same. One thing you can do to catch any subtle differences is to tar up the /etc/nut directory on one machine, then extract it into /tmp on the other machine, and use 'diff -Naur /etc/nut /tmp/nut' or whatnot. -- - Charles Lepple _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
