Is there anyone working on a generic UPS daemon? I know someone is working on one specifically for APC Smart UPS's, but this isn't usefull to the majority of people. We mostly have "non-smart", TrippLite's and APC out there right? Tripplite BC series, OmniPro series / APC BackUPS series. I would like to write a UPSd in C++, but I don't have enough knowledge of serial programming yet. Also, I would like some input about how the FreeBSD startup, and shutdown events happen. I am very familiar with the SYSV style startup/shutdown as implemented in RedHat Linux, and how sysvinit supports power event signals. What is the corollary in BSD? As far as I'm concerned, I don't even want to have to mess with init. I'd like to do my own shutdowns, and cancelations? -STEVEl
