Wait, when you say "NUT cannot connect to the UPS", which part are you 
referring to?

The error you posted before from the driver looked like something else was 
already connected to the UPS. Only one copy of the driver can be running, and 
the log quoted above shows that it is (PID 2082). There is supposed to be logic 
in the driver to detect that a copy is already running, and to send a 
termination signal to that before trying to continue.

However, if you get a "Connection Refused" error, then upsd is not listening on 
port 3493 yet. The last three lines above indicate that it couldn't bind to 
192.168.0.105, so if a restart fixes that, then I guess systemd isn't properly waiting 
for the network to come up. Maybe someone else has a suggestion for that, but for me, the 
path of least resistance would be to listen on 0.0.0.0 and use a firewall rule to limit 
connections to that subnet.


sorry, after reboot I started seeing this error in terminal:

Broadcast message from nut@amethi (somewhere) (Sat Dec 10 08:05:01 2016):

UPS CyberUPS1@localhost is unavailable


I had a similar issue I think when Ubuntu moved to SystemD with Mythtv not waiting to start until network was up and then erroring. I will see if I can recall what I did to fix that and apply it to NUT and see if that fixes it.
