Am installing a USB Smart-UPS unit made by APC and its bundled software is
only for SCO Unix and other non-FBSD OS. Thus, I suppose the SCO is
incompatible and was wondering which software would be the best choice from
the ports for monitoring the power and doing the management & shutdown. I
see the following possibles and if anyone has had with experience with this
UPS and any of these programs, I would like your recommendations about
which best to use ...much obliged!:

Port:   apcupsd-3.8.4-2
Path:   /usr/ports/sysutils/apcupsd
