[Nut-upsuser] Smart-UPS with SuSE 9.0/Nut

[Chris Boyd]

OK I've changed to a different machine as I don't think it install all of nut. Now I'm working with nut-1.2.2
I changed the driver to newapc and it's now finding the RT 3000 correctly. 
I'm still getting the reject TCP in messages: 

upsd[17078]: Rejecting TCP connection from 10.133.1.49

Sep  5 15:00:35 usit-hq-s03 upsmon[17077]: Poll UPS [myups at 10.133.1.49] failed - Read error: No such file or directory

I've set the owner to nobody after trying to creating a user and setting it as owner on the conf files as well as /dev/ttyS0. 

Here is the message I get when starting ups:

This is key.

ups.conf configures the drivers, whereas upsd.conf controls access to
the driver from the network.

If you are setting up a standalone system, you can use this as a
starting point for upsd.conf:

#======================
ACL all 0.0.0.0/0
ACL localhost 127.0.0.1/32

ACCEPT localhost
REJECT all
#======================

For more details, run 'man upsd.conf'
