Do any of these work with FreeBSD via USB? - CyberPower Standby CP425SLG UPS - CyberPower Standby CP550SLG UPS - Tripp Lite ECO Series 350VA UPS - Tripp Lite ECO Series 550VA UPS Or any other off-the-shelf inexpensive UPS that I can buy at Staples or Best Buy that will work with FreeBSD via USB to shut down the server gracefully. TIA, Alejandro Imass
