Hi Charles, It appears that if I re-run the command above after the main ups driver is running, that the qnapups dummy-ups driver seems to come up, and the target slave seems to be able to connect to it: # upsdrvctl start qnapups Network UPS Tools - UPS driver controller 2.6.3 Network UPS Tools - Device simulation and repeater driver 0.12 (2.6.3) ... Sep 16 17:05:50 upsd[24756]: listening on 0.0.0.0 port 3493 Sep 16 17:05:50 upsd[24756]: Connected to UPS [ups]: apcsmart-ups Sep 16 17:05:50 upsd[24756]: Can't connect to UPS [qnapups] (dummy-ups-qnapups): No such file or directory Sep 16 17:05:50 upsd[24757]: Startup successful Sep 16 17:05:50 upsd[24757]: User [email protected] logged into UPS [ups] Sep 16 17:06:10 upsd[24757]: Connected to UPS [qnapups]: dummy-ups-qnapups I guess there is some sort of timing considerations there. Is there any way to delay the loading of a particular UPS driver? Derek. p.s. sorry to Charles for sending this twice, but I forgot to reply-all first time around.
