I'm following the directions in the /usr/local/share/doc/nut/INSTALL and one of the first steps after installing is to run a particular command to connect to the UPS. My UPS is attached to my com1 port but when I try to access it with the /usr/local/libexec/nut/genericups binary but am getting a bunch of errors. Here are my attempts trying different serial ports: ----------- # /usr/local/libexec/nut/genericups -t 7 /dev/cuaa0 Network UPS Tools - Generic UPS driver 0.50 (0.45.0) UPS type: CyberPower Power99 Can't open /var/db/genericups-cuaa0: Permission denied This program is currently running as uucp (UID 66) # /usr/local/libexec/nut/genericups -t 7 /dev/cuaa1 Network UPS Tools - Generic UPS driver 0.50 (0.45.0) UPS type: CyberPower Power99 Can't open /var/db/genericups-cuaa1: Permission denied This program is currently running as uucp (UID 66) # /usr/local/libexec/nut/genericups -t 7 /dev/cuaa2 Network UPS Tools - Generic UPS driver 0.50 (0.45.0) UPS type: CyberPower Power99 Unable to open /dev/cuaa2: Device not configured # /usr/local/libexec/nut/genericups -t 7 /dev/cuaa3 Network UPS Tools - Generic UPS driver 0.50 (0.45.0) UPS type: CyberPower Power99 Unable to open /dev/cuaa3: Device not configured ---- Anyone setup NUT before on their system?
