Has anyone gotten APC's Backups software to work?

I've tried both RPM and source, both with same result..

I'm connected to the UPS with ttyS1..  Upon the install script, the
software tries to init the ups com port ( Light goes out ) and reports
an error, the ttyS1 port must be set up as a modem.

?? huh ??

The port is accessable by user and root ( chmod a+rw )..

I simply don't understand what the software is telling me..

How can you make the serial port configured as a modem other than a
symlink to /dev/modem which, imho, doesn't make sense..

Anyone who has done this please post, or better yet email me at

Thanks
Alan
