Hello,
How do I setup FreeBSD 6.2 to allow a UPS to shutdown a system via a USB
port.

I may be using a Powerware UPS, I'm not sure which one yet.

Thanks,
Ivan

if you havent made your UPS purchase yet (and as long as you dont have a prewired hatred of APC), sysutils/apcupsd works flawlessly for me, for both serial and USB interface'd APCs.

cheers,
I haven't purchased a UPS yet.
Does apcupsd send shutdown messages to Windows users logged into the server via Samba or does it only send it to users logged directly into FreeBSD? Reading the apcusbd manual I noticed it said that to access the RETURNCHARGE setting in the ups you need to be connected via a serial port. Do you use a Serial or USB connection?

I am thinking of purchasing an APC  SUA1500I model.

Thanks,
Ivan
