I'm running nut and a nut monitor over the network with no problems getting information out of the ups and across the network. upsc should be run with the hostname you want to monitor the ups on (even if it's the localhost). I found all the documentation not as man pages but in the /usr/share/doc/nut and /usr/share/doc/nut-doc directories. To get the nut-doc you have to install the nut-doc package which helped me get it going. I can send a sterilized(sans passwords) config file if you still can't find what you need in the docs. --mike
