Okay, I have a Back-UPS 350. I used the rpm on their website apcupsd-3.10.5-1_rh8_usb, but after awhile stopped using it because they have a bug that fills my log with: kernel: application bug: apcupsd(617) has SIGCHLD set to SIG_IGN but calls wait(). errors and I got tired of not being able to see what was really going on in my /var/log/messages file. That aside, the rpm *does* work with power outages, etc. My /etc/apcupsd/apcupsd.conf file is as follows: UPSCABLE usb UPSTYPE usb DEVICE /dev/usb/hid/hiddev[0-9] LOCKFILE /var/lock BATTERYLEVEL 5 MINUTES 3 TIMEOUT 0 ANNOY 300 ANNOYDELAY 60 NOLOGON disable KILLDELAY 0 NETSERVER on NISIP 0.0.0.0 NISPORT 3551 EVENTSFILE /var/log/apcupsd.events EVENTSFILEMAX 100 UPSCLASS standalone UPSMODE disable STATTIME 0 STATFILE /var/log/apcupsd.status LOGSTATS off DATATIME 0 Hope that helps, Ben -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
