I wish it were explicit. :) You say to use FSD for testing the system...what do I use for real? I thought I was supposed to call upsdrvctl shutdown with some delay, and THEN begin shutting down my PC, in the hopes I finish before the delay expires and the UPS shuts off of the power supply. When you say "the init scripts will take care of this", do you mean that if I execute a system shutdown, it will automatically send the "upsdrvctl shutdown" command at the end? _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
