Thank you :) I tried with 'usb' instead of 'ether' for the cable, and it works just the same. Not specifying a cable at all doesn't work. I could argue that 'usb' is more correct for the cable type than any of the other types because the UPS is connected with an USB cable to the remote machine. -- Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug) -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
