I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS with kernel 3.13.0-39-generic x86_64.  The
security mechanisms I haven't played with at all, and up until last week
nut was running just fine on an Eaton E series NV UPS with a USB connection
(from memory it used the blazer_usb driver).  I installed the nut packages
from debian sid (ubuntu is still stuck on nut version 2.7.1) to get the
2.7.2 version with the nutdrv_atcl_usb driver.
I tried adding the "-u root" to the driver command line, that didn't change
anything. I might try to find a spare machine to run Debian on to see if it
works that way.
