I think the question he meant to ask is whether or not FreeBSD will detect powerfail event signals from a UPS via a serial port, and automatically begin a shutdown. I know linux can handle this, by specifying options in /etc/inittab, but FreeBSD doesn't have that. :) Actually, I'd like to know if it's possible, too, even though I never plan on owning a UPS.
