Hi again. I got this information looking at the mail archives at www.freebsd.org: >There seems to be an increasing number of people asking for info on UPS >software lately.

An UPS is extremely important for dedicated machines running any U*ix OS. I think it would be great to add to the FreeBSD documentation something about UPS (at least in 2.1-RELEASE there is nothing about it). Regards, Eloy.- -- Eloy A.
