FreeBSD gabriella.abattoir.com 6.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #0: Sun Jan 29 12:51:00 PST 2006 root@dummy.abattoir.com:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/GABFW i386
>Description:
In /usr/ports/sysutil/nut/files there is nut.sh.sample v1.5
This shows that you might create an rc.conf variable:
nut_upslogmail=${nut_upslogmail-"backups@localhost"}
However this is misleading because this _IS NOT_ an email address. It is a ups identifier (ie: myups@localhost, massiveapc@someotherhost). The variable name should probably be changed (nut_upslogups ?) and at the least, "backups@localhost" changed to "myups@localhost" to match the nut examples.
