Newhidups did not support APC in 2.0.1, which is a very old version of NUT. APC has been supported since 2.0.3 (see http://www.networkupstools.org/compat/stable.html). See also http://www.mathstat.dal.ca/~selinger/ups/backups.html for additional instructions.
Even 2.0.4 is a bit outdated at this point; the best NUT version to use is from the SVN Development tree, see http://www.networkupstools.org/source.html. There have been some APC-related bugfixes since 2.0.4. -- Peter Marek Szuba wrote: > > On Thu, 30 Nov 2006 21:05:18 -0400 (AST) > [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Peter Selinger) wrote: > > > you should use newhidups, not hidups. -- Peter > Hmm.
