Gents,<br> Sorry for the .jpg taking up so much space. I will not do that again. I ran "usbconfig" as root and it came back "usbconfig: command not found" I ran "pwd" and I am root, tried "lsusb" for giggles and it didn't work either. I thought about upgrading to Freenas 8.0 but I am used to the embedded version that I installed on a datastick...I didn't see a .img for 8.0 and was wondering how you installed it. Thanks again for your help.<br><br>John<br><br><div> </div><br><br><div>> Date: Tue, 28 Jun 2011 20:06:50 -0400<br>> Subject: Re: [Nut-upsuser] [Nut-upsdev] UPS on Freenas<br>> From: clepple@gmail.com<br>> To: johnski49@hotmail.com<br>> CC: bpkent@wholeworldwindow.net; nut-upsuser@lists.alioth.debian.org<br>> <br>> On Tue, Jun 28, 2011 at 11:22 AM, Bobby Kent<br>> <bpkent@wholeworldwindow.net> wrote:<br>> > Hi John,<br>> ><br>> > You should use the Linux command lsusb to find the USB Vendor and Product<br>> > Id, e.g.:<br>> <br>> I misspoke - apparently freenas is based on FreeBSD (who would have<br>> guessed from the name?!?) and I thought it was opensolaris based on<br>> the fragment of the ZFS copyright in the screenshot.<br>> <br>> I would agree with Bobby about the attachments, with the additional<br>> suggestion that if it's just textual information, please don't send it<br>> only as a graphic - it makes it harder for other people to search for<br>> information about that model.<br>> <br>> > I went into the gui and printed the syslog...I'm not sure how to read it<br>> > and I've included a picture of the bottom of my UPS...I'm unsure about a USB<br>> > vendor ID but I have the manual which I attached.<br>> <br>> Unfortunately, there is not much information about the UPS in syslog:<br>> <br>> Jun 27 12:01:33 frogger17a kernel: uhid0: <Belkin UPS, class 0/0, rev<br>> 1.10/0.01, addr 2> on uhub0<br>> <br>> What do you get when you run 'usbconfig' as root?<br>> <br>> Also, the USB support in FreeBSD prior to 8.0 is not very usable from<br>> the NUT perspective.
