I have a couple web servers running FreeBSD 5.x and need to

These are two simple machines running at home so nothing fancy. Just
some way to do a power down neatly so the shutdown has time
to clean up.
What do I need and where can I look for more detailed information.
check this out, I use it and it works with many different UPS.
# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/nut
# cat pkg-descr
This is a developing project to monitor a large assortment of
UPS hardware.
Network communications are used so that multiple systems can
monitor a
single physical UPS and shut down together if necessary without any
special "sharing hardware" on the UPS itself. CGI scripts are
provided
to monitor UPS status via a WEB browser.

I personally use APC UPS with apcupsd (in ports) which works very
well with the USB cable supplied.
