[Nut-upsuser] How to get serial port ownership to survive reboot

[Doug Parsons]

Suse10 uses Udev as a control to the devices and creates them each time the 
system boots. Thus the mode and ownership is lost on shutdown. What you need 
to do is create an entry for udev to use to create a static device for you 
so that it will remain constant.

I am not sure how Suse handles it but Redhat uses a folder in 
/etc/udev/devices to store a copy of the desired device that udev will 
create on boot up with needed permissions.

So the real issue is that you were in the wrong FM. Don't feel bad, it took 
me several hours to figure it out.
