Have to correct my last email, I just wasn't patient enough, it took 20min between starting service apcupsd and "NIS server startupsucceeded" message. Could also be that the communication came up becausewe had a few voltage fluctuations right before the message. Its definitely weird that it takes that long.
Oh boy. That is due to a very embarassing bug in the apcupsd patch. It doesn't initialize the inter-urb timer properly so it could end up waiting very, very long the first time thru.
Attached is the corrected patch. Someone please pass the brown paper bag... --Adam
