Hi Shane, Going through old list posts, and I noticed the similarity to Leith's email: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/nut-upsuser/2014-August/009128.html The "Broken pipe" error message might also show up in dmesg output as "error -32". What kind of motherboard do you have, and what version of the kernel are you running? _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list Nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
