>1. Backup (PowerChute-like app, from Belkin?) --> don't know of any
>alternative in FreeBSD

I have an F6C120-UNV UPS from Belkin, and on the website it has "Linux
Bulldog v3.01.12" at
http://web.belkin.com/support/download/downloaddetails.asp?download=824&lang=1

This works fine for me.

Note - im connecting by network to the ups, not sure how well it manages
the serial port.
