I am trying to get a UPS monitoring system going, and in order to do this,
I need to send "s" to /dev/cuaa0  set at 1200bps and log the output to a
file. I am trying to get this done with cron, but I have not been able to
find a non interactive way of doing this. Everything I have tried requires
some user input. I am thinking kermit, but so far once I do "connect" the
script stops working.

any ideas anyone?

thanks,

 -Mike
