[Nut-upsuser] SMART3000RM2U?

[Moorcroft, Mark (ARC-TSM)[ERC, Inc.]]

Can anyone point me to information for getting the Tripplite SMART3000RM2U
to work with NUT? Our newer Tripplite units seem to work with the
usbhid-ups driver, but these older ones seem to need something different.
So far I have had little success getting tripplite_usb to work.

[root at banyan ~]# tripplite_usb -a tripplite
Network UPS Tools - Tripp Lite OMNIVS / SMARTPRO driver 0.20 (2.6.1)
Warning: This is an experimental driver.
Some features may not function correctly.

Can't claim USB device [09ae:0001]: could not detach kernel driver from
interface 0: Operation not permitted

I think the start of my trouble is I need to change the file added to
/etc/udev/rules.d
