I have searched high and low and cannot (as a newbie) seem to find the reason why I get the following errors when I start upsmon

Feb 13 00:52:35 fileserver upsmon[904]: Master privileges unavailable on UPS [QP1000 at localhost]
Feb 13 00:52:35 fileserver upsmon[904]: Reason: Access deniedmy upsmon.conf looks as follows:--------------------------fileserver# more upsmon.confPOWERDOWNFLAG /etc/killpowerMONITOR QP1000 at localhost 1 nut nut12 master# Tell upsmon how to shutdown the systemSHUTDOWNCMD "/sbin/shutdown -h +0"fileserver#--------------------------I can log in with user "nut" and password "nut12" so that is OK.When I start upsmon I get:---------------------------fileserver# ./upsmonNetwork UPS Tools upsmon 2.0.5Using power down flag file /etc/killpowerUPS: QP1000 at localhost (master) (power value 1)-------------------------------Is there something I am missing?
