[Nut-upsuser] Megatec driver floods logs #2 & mail notifications

[Justin Piszcz]

Hi,

For no. 1:

1. Edit upsmon.conf
2. Specify NOTIFYCMD:
NOTIFYCMD /etc/nut/notify.sh

3. Make sure the script is executable & that it works prior to adding it 
here.

4. Then just make a simple script:

#!/bin/bash

DATE=$(/bin/date)
HOST=$(/bin/hostname | cut -f1 -d'.')

echo "$*" | mailx -s "ups@$HOST POWER ALERT on $DATE" user at addr.com


For no. 2: I am not sure, the drivers that I have used do not have that 
problem with the UPS' in use.

Justin.
