It has been a while since I have set this all up so I am in no position to write up another how-to for it. I suggest starting here : http://www.apcupsd.com/ when looking for latest instructions. We have two APC SmartUPS Net uinits here, a 1000VA and a 1400VA. The larger one in hooked up using one of APC's special 'serial' cables to a Mandrake 7.0 box working as the master and supplies power to 5 slaves including MDK 8.0, MDK 8.2, MDK 9.0. The smaller UPS is 'serial' connected to a MDK 8.1 box that is the master and has two slaves -- a Smoothwall firewall box and a Solaris box. Everything works fine. I did have to change a battery last winter in the 1400 and to reset the battery status in the UPS I resorted briefly to running powerchute. The MDK 7.0 box currently has 672 days continous uptime.... - -- KevinO Hickory Dickory Dock, The mice ran up the clock, The clock struck one, The others escaped with minor injuries. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE+6h0ljBS1mMJB+bQRAhaWAJ97tSAykn2PVYXHWNLMLarcMe3qbQCg5nN5 rOajhSD8j4qoCHuC/TAtdHs= =R9Sr -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
