Boy, I guess I got that one wrong.
When I run nmap on the master it does say that port 3493 is open which is 
expected.
So then what you are telling me means the ports are open. In other words I 
don't have a firewall issue.
Now I am stumped as to why the slave does not shut down?

I would like to verify my understanding keeping in mind I have a one master and 
one slave computer.
When the master gets the low batt/noAC signal it initiates a broadcast 
packet(s) on port 3493.
1) Is this correct?
No, the slave computer's upsmon process connects to the master (via TCP, so 
point-to-point, not broadcast), and listens for the OB (on battery) and then 
"OB LB" (on battery; low battery) status.
(Not to say that some other UPS shutdown software couldn't broadcast, but port 
3493 is reserved for NUT.)
Then the slave computer must have this port open and it listens on this port 
for the shut-down command.
2) Is this correct?
It's the other way around: the master (via upsd) listens on port 3493, and the 
slave connects to that port.
On the slave if I run the following:
steve@MyDesktop:~$ nmap -p 3493 192.168.0.6
Starting Nmap 6.40 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2014-11-09 15:42 ESTNmap scan report 
for 192.168.0.6Host is up (0.00013s latency).PORT     STATE  SERVICE3493/tcp 
closed nut
Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 11.06 seconds
Which tells me this port is configured for nut but it is closed?
As mentioned above, that is expected. But if you run it against the master 
(192.168.0.7, if I understand correctly) from the slave, you should see that it 
is open.
I have rebooting and starting and stopping the service using:
sudo service ups-monitor stop 
sudo service ups-monitor startBut it remains closed.
3) Assuming this should be open how do I fix this?
You mentioned that you have a "LISTEN 0.0.0.0" line in upsd.conf on the master 
- has upsd been restarted since that change was made? Other than that, you 
should be set. Do things match the "netstat" output I mentioned in a previous 
email?
