I was wrong in my interpretation of the information provided by man udevinfo. Thanks for helping me out with that (-a flag). My question now becomes: should I worry about the permissions on the usb device, and if so, how do I correct the fact that udev is not using our rule? Thanks for the qu

Ok, I fooled around with the driver some more, and if I run: sudo /lib/nut/newhidups -u root -D auto I get some output, and the driver makes a connection to the UPS. At this point, it seems to be a permissions problem (which I don't know how to fix, with USB). If I run, /lib/nut/newhid
