Hi Charles,

Not getting error re login for upsmon now.
When turning off power I am getting the following failed error.

Sep 18 10:35:24 solus upsmon[685]:*UPS defender@localhost on battery*
Sep 18 10:35:32 solus upssched[1261]:*Failed to connect to parent and failed to create parent: No such file or directory*
Sep 18 10:35:44 solus upsmon[685]:*UPS defender@localhost on line power*

Is this another permission issue.

upssched.conf  root:nut 640

CMDSCRIPT /usr/etc/upsShutdownNow.sh

# mandatory fields that must be set before AT commands
PIPEFN /var/run/nut/upssched.pipe
LOCKFN /var/run/nut/upssched.lock

# the timers, here 120 sec after the ONBATT (ups on battery) event
AT ONBATT * START-TIMER onbatt 120

# cancel the countdown if power is back
AT ONLINE * CANCEL-TIMER onbatt

Note I didn't have  /var/run/nut folder so created one.

The MONITOR line in upsmon.conf needs to match a NUT user in upsd.users.

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.
