Thanks. That seemed to work when I put
MONITOR 127.0.0.1 main
My one other question is this. I made an rpm package to add some extra stuff
to apcupsd. I made some mail scripts (which get called automatically from
apccontrol). The script files are the same name as the events. I called this
package apcusbd-extras.
I would like to put some requires statements into this rpm (for apcupsd).
However, I could not install apcupsd from an rpm. I had to get the
src, do a ./configure, make, and make install. So even though it is installed,
rpmquery does not know about it, so the require fails. I could use
--nodeps but that kind of defeats the purpose of having a requires.
I don't know how to install apcupsd via an rpm.
Any suggestions?

missed most this thread, apcupsd's cgi requires a hosts.conf file
normally in /etc/apcupsd, this governs what "ups" it will monitor
my apolgiies if this has already been covered earlier in the thread.
