I have the opportunity to replace an aging UPS with a new APC BE750G Power Saving Battery Back-UPS one. My question is if anyone here has ever used this device under FreeBSD. APC does not have=2C or at least I couldn't find any=2C software for a FreeBSD system. Without the software=2C the unit is basically useless. I Googled and found an old message regarding FreeBSD and a similar UPS <http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2004-October/062543.h= tml> dated 10/2004. Are those issues still relevant? According to <http://www.apcupsd.com/manual/#freebsd> I need to insure that this is a "SmartUPS" The unit I am looking at does not qualify. I might add that my present unit is connected to a Windows machine. I intend to replace that one and hook up both PCs to it. --=20 Carmel =E2=9C=8C carmel_ny@hotmail.com
