It does not have any serial/usb interface. Can I get apcupsd or any other daemon to work with it so that the system automatically shuts down before backup supply runs out ? If someone can attach a sample configuration file, I shall be grateful. Thanks Manish Jain --------------------------------- Yahoo! Mail Use Photomail to share photos without annoying attachments.
