Kjell,<br>
<br>
thanks for your answer. The nut package version is 2.0.4-4 <br>
I could solve the problem. It had to do with the USB socket I was
using. I changed it to another and it worked.<br>
<br>
Thanks again.<br>

<pre wrap=""><!---->This should be located in /var/lib/nut and that directory should belong to the

Think we have some debian users that could help you with this.

<pre wrap=""><!---->
This indicate an older verion of the nut. Now it appands the tag name ( for
you 'myups') to the socket, like bcmxcp_usb-myups.
This is my /var/lib/nut
ls -l /var/lib/nut/
