[Bigsister-general] nutups Purple error - permission problem


Hi,

I stepped on this problem twice and have spent quite some time on
tracing it down. Perhaps it can save some time for other users.

PROBLEM : you configure UPS monitoring and get "Purple" saying "No UPS
monitored". You are certain that there is UPS, and you have

When you test NUT UPS monitor it with "telnet localhost nut" everything
works just fine. But you still have "Purple" error. What basically
happens is that connection from Bigsister agent comes not from localhost
but from "eth0" IP address (I'm not quite sure why). In my configuration
only connections from localhost were allowed to NUT UPS monitor.  Once
you allow connection from eth0 IP address in /etc/nut/upsd.conf
everything started to work.

Hope it may help.  Is it worth mentioning (verify that connection from
all local IP addresses are allowed) in nutups module help page?

Sasha.
