What systems are dependable and reasonable priced, esp. at the low end for use with workstations ii. Is it possible to power down several work stations simultaneously from one UPS. I am not concerned with any extended working after a power failure, just an orderly shutdown of the whole system. I've seen some 1KVA units that are capable of supporting several machines buy with only 1 serial port connection on the back, thus connecting only one machine. Is there a way to replicate the signals to several machines? Thanks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
