Remick" Subject: UPS signal from NT? Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a question... We have a large UPS hooked up to our NT server. The UPS only has one serial port and it is currently set up to signal a shutdown on the NT server. Without buying a separate UPS for our FreeBSD server, is there some way to get a signal from the NT server that would trigger a shutdown on the FreeBSD box also? Any ideas welcome... thanks!
