Hi and thanks Charles. I never would have thought of this. But I do get the same response as without the @localhost.

This makes me think something remains broken. But

upsc belkinusb

right after this gets results.

Does "upsc belkinusb@localhost" also work? If not, check to make sure
that localhost doesn't resolve to a slightly different address than
what upsd is listening to. I don't remember how Ubuntu 14 deals with
IPv6, but if I run "getent hosts localhost" on an Ubuntu 18.04 box,
it only returns the IPv6 loopback address ("::1", not "127.0.0.1").

If you already have a firewall set up, the easiest answer might be to
have upsd listen on 0.0.0.0, and then use firewall rules to restrict
untrusted outside hosts.
