Due to many e-mails received of people wanting the source of the freely available upsd, I sent this mail to the list. upsd-1.0 was programmed by a guy at Wildwind Communications. It used the dumb mode of APC SmartUPSes and is depreciated. Then, also at Wildwind Communications, upsd-2.0 appeared. It uses active ("intelligent") mode of the SmartUPS and reports actual configurations, voltages, etc to the syslog. Problem: Wildwind Communications seem to no longer exist on the net. Their FTP site is no longer registered at InterNIC (ftp.ww.net). So I put the source at our anonymous FTP server for download. Please write your own settings for your UPS (configurable parameters) in apc_static.c, because they are changing from one country to another. Feedback and working configurations would be appreciated. I use this upsd with FreeBSD 2.2.5 and a SmartUPS 700.
