The driver is running in the background at this point, correct?

Are there any error messages about writing PID files when you start  
the driver?

Given the ./configure line from your original post, /var/state/ups is  
the default directory for the driver socket, and the driver's PID file:

configure --prefix=/opt/nut/2.6.1 --with-cgi --with-hal --with- 
user=ups --with-group=nut CC=cc
