Is this enough to be "appropriately > privileged", or do I need more?
My mistake, that part looks good. It looks like the same "ERR ACCESS-DENIED" code is returned for a problem with upsd.users/upsmon.conf versus a TCP wrappers match failure. What if you run 'tcpdchk' against your hosts.allow file? I am not terribly familiar with TCP wrappers, and your configuration looked reasonable, but it's possible that there is a problem with the syntax. -- - Charles Lepple _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
