Dear Arjen,
Many thanks for your prompt reply.

Actually, I have tried this also (I should have mentioned this in my
previous posting). Moreover, I have set permissions to USB devices to
make them accessible for the uucp user, so I hope the permissions
should be ok.
[root at substance /usr/local/libexec/nut]# ./usbhid-ups -u root -DD -a CyberPower
Network UPS Tools - Generic HID driver 0.34 (2.4.1)
USB communication driver 0.31
debug level is '2'
upsdrv_initups...
No appropriate HID device found
No matching HID UPS found
Could it be that FreeBSD recognizes my CyberPower device a little bit
different than any Linux machine (say, the device signature as
recognized by USB driver is different) - so a small patch of the nut
source code may improve the situation?
Can I debug nut or libusb further to see what is going on inside?
Thanks a lot,
forsite
