Are you certain your nut startup script is even actually being run? This sounds like for some reason the system's never trying to run the script. Why don't you modify the script to log a timestamp to a file in /etc every time it gets run? Are you certain the system's booting to the correct runlevel? -- Phil Stracchino, CDK#2 DoD#299792458 ICBM: 43.5607, -71.355 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Renaissance Man, Unix ronin, Perl hacker, Free Stater It's not the years, it's the mileage. _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
