Cool package! I've had an APC BackUPS ES with a usb since 2002 but never even hooked it up, assuming that was for a Windows world only. I'm glad to have emerged from the darkness. I managed to get it monitoring working well with this package, though I have a few suggestions that I hope can be solved in the packaging installation scripts. 1) I'd suggest the sample scripts installed in their proper locations in /etc/nut/ , with the proper ownership and permissions (nut:nut, 600). These samples can have everything commented out. They don't have to be functional, as long as they don't produce security holes.

Re: [Bug 182790] Re: main inclusion report
Fellows, Following our discussion of last friday with Nick, I've quickly created a test-nut.py for the QA Regression Testing (master branch). I've already explained the general idea to Nick, but for the others, here is a quick brief: - NUT provides a dummy driver (dummy-ups) that loads its data from an upsc output (or create a base set of data otherwise). - the idea for regression testing is to create a base NUT config, using dummy-ups, and to start the 3 NUT layers (driver, upsd and upsmon) - then you check that the daemons (dummy-ups, upsd and upsmon) are started, - then you try to get some data (using upsc) - then you inject a data change in the driver layer (like changing ups.status to OB, using upsrw), and you verify the data propagation in the client layer (the same layer as upsmon, still using upsc) This is very basic for now, but allows to validate the general NUT architecture non regression. I'll look into adding more things in the future, but it's already a good starting point. what delivery method would you prefer (I tried logging a bug, but it's void)... -- Arnaud -- main inclusion report https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182790 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

just some comments to ease your audit: - all the mentioned functions (upslog*, upsdebug*, fatal*) point to vupslog, and vupslog use only numbered copy functions, - we centralize as much as possible such kind of functions to manage the security and reliability of NUT, - we enforce in general the use of numbered copy, - I've just started to formalize our QA effort: http://test.networkupstools.org/Documentation/UserManual/QualityAssurance Not much there yet, but it will expose our many effort to enhance NUT quality in general.

Hi Jamie, 2008/2/8, Jamie Strandboge [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Arnaud, I was curious as to why the Debian packaging doesn't do the 'security domains' as listed in: http://www.networkupstools.org/faq/ or even the chrooting as in: http://www.networkupstools.org/doc/2.2.0/chroot.html well, the answers would be: because... - the security scheme of the current debs are inherited from the previous maintainer, - no users have explicitly expressed the need (or wish) of more security hardening by default, - I've not had yet the time to cleanly complete these packages (need debconf, cdbs refactoring, security hardening), nor received help to do so, - I've dedicated most of my time upstream (you might want to have a look at my launchpad wiki), - ...
