Hello I'm having a bit of a trouble to set up a Back-UPS on a production box. We're using the newhidups driver for this module here, in the office, and I'd like to monitor the one, out in our server farm.
The situation is the following: # /lib/nut/newhidups -u root -DD -a ups1 2> ups1.out Network UPS Tools: 0.28 USB communication driver 0.28 - core 0.30 (2.0.5) this one worked flawlessly, while as a user, it cannot access the UPS: # /lib/nut/newhidups -u nut -DD -a ups1 Network UPS Tools: 0.28 USB communication driver 0.28 - core 0.30 (2.0.5) debug level is '2' No appropriate HID device found No matching HID UPS found I've chowned to nut:nut /dev/usb/* and /proc/bus/usb recursively, but it didn't help. I'd like to ask for help, what do i need to adjust on the system to make it work. Some circumstances: This is a production box. The kernel cannot be changed, it cannot be restarted, and it should be held in awe and respect. So I can only touch it as minimally as it's required. hotplug is not available here, so replugging is USB cable is out of question. # /etc/init.d/hotplug restart * Kernel hotplug support not enabled. So, what should I do to make this work? -- Üdvözlettel, Czuczy Gergely Publishing Factory Kft http://www.publishing.hu/ _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
