I did not have any such files, so I created them, according to a website I
saw

/etc/hotplug/usb/usbups

#!/bin/bash
# Implementation by Wolfgang Ocker
#
# /etc/hotplug/usb/usbups
#
# Sets up newly plugged in USB USP
#
# In the usermap file, the first field "usb module" should be named
# "usbups" like this script.
#
echo usbups: device = $DEVICE >>/tmp/usb.log

NUTOWNER=nut

if [ "${ACTION}" = "add" ] && [ -f "${DEVICE}" ]
then
chmod 0000 "${DEVICE}"
chown "$NUTOWNER" "${DEVICE}"
chmod 0644 "${DEVICE}"
fi


and
cat usbups.usermap


# usb module match_flags idVendor idProduct bcdDevice_lo
bcdDevice_hi bDeviceClass bDeviceSubClass bDeviceProtocol bInterfaceClass
bInterfaceSubClass bInterfaceProtocol driver_info
# Powerware USB
libhidups 0x0003 0x06da 0x0002 0 0 0 0 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00000000


should that be ok?
i did chmod 755 on usbups file
