Steve,

You're welcome.

I forgot to clarify that while you will have two upsmon processes running (one with root privileges, the other which listens on the network socket), only one should be logging.

Charles,
Thanks for that.
I think the duplicated startup was caused by me also editing /etc/ sysconfig/ups as well as the NUT specific config files. I have removed the /etc/sysconfig changes and the messages file looks ok (comparatively!).

This will sound a bit odd.
I have a current server running with a UPS. I'm in the process of replacing that server with another and obviously want Nut to monitor the new server. The new/old servers are in different locations, so I don't have access to the UPS while configuring the replacement server. I think I have the config ok, but what errors would you expect to see? Typically I'm getting a 'driver not connected' type error in the /var/log/messages:


"driver not connected" is normal. However...

Having two copies of upsmon (1313 and 1348) logging messages about the same UPS is not expected, though.


Also note:


Aug 19 18:07:16 T300 upsd[1308]: listening on 0.0.0.0 port 3493
[...]
Aug 19 18:07:29 T300 upsd[1342]: not listening on 0.0.0.0 port 3493


The second copy of upsd can't bind to the same port as the first one, so you get the above error message.
