I'm not sure, but given that the master upsd waits for all of the slaves to shutdown or time out, I guess it comes down to which server is more reliable. You would also need to consider the network link between the master and the server running upsd, which was assumed to be the loopback interface in the original NUT design. -- Charles Lepple clepple@gmail _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
