My mistake - I misinterpreted the log you posted. Without the "-D" flag, the driver should go into the background in a matter of seconds, usually. Can you run the driver under strace, and see where it gets stuck? Or did you only run it with the "-D" flag? In that case, if you are getting "Connection refused" from "upsc", you might need to start "upsd" by hand. _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
