I installed NUT version 2.6.3-1ubuntu1.1 w/the client and server and the nut monitor. When I open the monitor, I get an error: error connecting to 'local host' ([Errno] connection refused). What can I do to get NUT to work? I can not tell if the NUT program is working or not.
I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 32 bit
Installed NUT from the Synaptic Package Manager.
My computer is a Systemax w/MSI motherboard K9N6GM series, 64bit.
The UPS is a Tripplite AVR-550u connected to computer w/USB cable.
Have you configured nut to talk to your UPS? You'll need to follow the configuration information in the nut user pages here: http://www.networkupstools.org/documentation.html

I would also do a google search for 'nut tripplite avr-550u' and see what kind of information you find, I would also search ubuntuforums.org for your UPS model.

At a minimum, you need to configure hosts.conf, ups.conf and upsmon.conf - you should also understand what all the options do, as this will have a critical effect on how the UPS behaves when it loses mains power.

Cheers,
Greg
