[Nut-upsdev] Question about NUT-Monitor

[john hart]

Okay.  I figured out why I could not send command, even though I has entered the correct login and password.I did not include  ' instcmds  = ALL '  in my upsd.users  file.  It now works as expected.  Thanks.

I refer to debian's "NUT Monitor" (python): One started it connects to
localhost/default ups or so without username/pwd.
Then click disconnect and "use auth" checkbox will be clickable and
login data may be entered. The ups must be selected now, connect again
and the commands will work.

CU,
Gernot
