[Nut-upsuser] upsd won't run

[Wim Heemskerk Lists]

They were 640 root : nut.

I had not realised these would be wrong, as I could do "stat /etc/nut" just 
fine, even as the "nut" user. Reading your note on this fresh day made me 
wonder at once.. shouldn't that be 750? And yep; works like a charm now. :)

Thanks a bunch :D

Wim
