So I got past this - threw a hail mary and put an exit 0 at the top of this perl script.  Seemed to work fine, it kept going and finished the build.

So now I have it installed (again - only using upsmon) and it won’t connect to my remote NUT instance.  It doesn’t even seem to try to connect (ran tcpdump on the remote box).

It seems like it doesn’t know how to open a socket on Solaris ?  Anyone have any ideas ?

Thanks.
