ALSO >>>>edit /etc/default/apcupsd
# Apcupsd-devel internal configuration

APCACCESS=/sbin/apcaccess
ISCONFIGURED=yes change from no to yes

restart apcupsd and check with apcaccess status

so now that i have it running i guess i have to test it. SHIVERS

I've got one apc ups, but my xp system's plugged into it. I need to get another one next time Microcenter has them on sale.

They have a windows binary

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=54413

configured it and started it up, and from windows machine it is talking to server!!!!

just use the master file on your xp machine and setup Ubie box like slave.

Sweet, wind em up and let em go!

Good job, Mike.


I didn't know there was one for Win* :dunno:

they have cgi stuff but that looks like it's a bit much. I mean it would be pretty to look at but i am running just one ups if it were a couple then i would probably setup for html
