[Nut-upsuser] Shutdown problem with Geek Squad GS1285U

[Peter Selinger]

I am not sure why you created a file S89ups-shutdown. You were
supposed to edit init.d/halt. There is usually more stuff in
init.d/halt besides shutting off the power, and you really want to
make sure that that stuff is called before you turn off the UPS (which
turns off your computer). 

The reason it's not working is probably that you forgot a "/" in front
of /usr/local/ups/etc/upsmon.conf. You should also make sure that is
the correct location of your upsmon.conf.
