Hello, I just upgraded my nut 2.2.1 setup to 2.4.1. The "upsdrvctl shutdown" command now works using a APC Backup-UPS CS350 via USB. Great!
The removed ACL/allowfrom functionality can be replaced by tcp_wrappers. Unfortunately there isn't much documentation about the migration. First you have to compile nut with "--with-wrap". I have a special "nutadmin" user with read/write permissions and a nut user with "read only" permissions. The transformed setup looks like this: ----------------------------------------------------- [r...@intratest2 init.d]# cat /etc/ups/upsd.users: [nutadmin] password = nutadmin actions = SET instcmds = all upsmon master [nut] password = nut upsmon slave [r...@intratest2 init.d]# cat /etc/hosts.allow upsd : [email protected] : allow upsd : nutad...@all : deny ----------------------------------------------------- The "nut" user will be allowed by default as it didn't match an explicit rule. I hope this will give someone else a good starting point regarding the tcp_wrappers migration. Cheers, Thomas _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
