The MONITOR line in upsmon.conf needs to match a NUT user in upsd.users. http://networkupstools.org/docs/man/upsmon.conf.html http://networkupstools.org/docs/man/upsd.users.html Looks like you are using this as a master system (UPS is directly connected, and upsmon shuts down that system), so the appropriate NUT user needs "upsmon master" in upsd.users. Note that the NUT users listed in upsd.users do not need to correspond to actual system users - think of them more as roles. If you add a slave system that connects over the network, you might not want it to be able to shut down the master, so you would use a different NUT username with "upsmon slave" privileges. _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
