My understanding of the "ups.start.auto" setting is that it only applies when 
an explicit shutdown command has not been given (and therefore would be 
overridden by one of the shutdown.* commands, if NUT is configured to manage 
the shutdown process).

That said, I'll defer to someone who knows the specifics of the Eaton hardware 
for information on how it should work. The UPS firmware has a lot of leeway in 
how the commands and settings are interpreted.
