What are those permissions and why are they wrong? What did you do to make it work? > This script is not part of NUT.

I just double checked and for me, the script works as expected. The permissions on the port are crw-rw---- 1 upsd root 4, 66 2007-10-20 11:48 /dev/ttyS2 which should be OK. It would be somewhat better to create a 'upsd' user with 'nut' group and change the permissions to root:nut though. Likewise, the configuration scripts could then have permissions root:nut and filemask 0640. But this is mostly cosmetic, as it is, the init script should be fine.
