I have not gotten anything from CentOS yet but I did continue to do some 
research. The following command finds the UPS:
/usr/local/ups/bin/newhidups -x productid=0375 -u root -D  auto

Trying several different combinations of the above command line I have to have 
both:
-x productid=0375 
and
-u root
for it to work.

the ups.conf now looks like:
        driver = newhidups
        productid=0375 
        port = auto

adding the productid line did not help

I added these lines /etc/udev/rules.d/nut-usbups.rules:
# Belkin  - Belkin-UBS
SYSFS{idVendor}=="050d", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0375", MODE="660", GROUP="ups"
Adding that line did not help either.

FYI, when compiling nut, I use ./configure --with-user=ups
and user ups is in group ups.

SO, the only command that recognizes the UPS is:
/usr/local/ups/bin/newhidups -x productid=0375 -u root -D  auto

Therefore, I have a configuration error but I can not figure out where it 
could be.

Does the above help indicate to you where the configuration is wrong?
