Ups, I've totaly missed that Marc said 'apcupsd'. In this case here are
my deep appologies to Marc and everybody Being over busy last couple of
days I was quite hasty in this case. Sorry.
BTW. about apcupsd-cgi. I found that in order to use it I need to install
appache2. I never needed to run a server on my home desktop before.
Wouldn't it be a little overkill to install appache server only to use
apcupsd web interface?
I'm realy not sure I want to spend a lot of time on securing and then
maintaning the server. However I'm not realy familiar with the matter. Is
it over complicated or I'd rather use CLI to control apcuspd daemon?
Thanks.
