rpm -qa e-smith-nutUPS
If you get NUT running with administrative privileges modification from sme8 instruction, you need to remove the custom template created for this. These variables are taken in charge by the new package.
First you need to delete the custom template file.( This command delete the directory, be sure you don't have personal file present. If the case, delete manualy the file created for administrative privileges )
rm -rf /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/ups/upsd.users
Now, to get '''upsd''' to recognise the modification of user, we need to expand the template and reload the '''upsd''' configuration
/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/ups/upsd.users
/usr/sbin/upsd -c reload
You should check your new password ( AdminPass ) to run '''upsrw''' & '''upscmd'''. Of course, you could change your password for a easier one to use.
config show nut
To set new admin password in database. The new password would be admin ( change it to suit your need )
config setprop nut AdminPass admin
To view a complete list of the UPS variables, both informational and modifiable
To enabled administrative privileges and run command to ups.
config setprop nut AdminUser enabled
Now, to get '''upsd''' to recognise admin modification for administrative privileges we expand the template and reload the '''upsd''' configuration
/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/ups/upsd.users

{{Note box|To disabled the administrative privileges once you have changed the UPS parameters or issued commands as required, issue the commands

==== UPS access ====
The access of the ups is controled by database properties. The default propertie is set to localhost and give permission to run '''upsrw''' & '''upscmd''' from localhost only if administrative privileges is set to enabled as above. No slave ups could be connected in this mode. Three choices is available to set access.
* localhost: the ups access is only from the local machine ( UPS master ).
* private: the ups access is from your local machine and local network as per define in server-manager panel.
* public: the ups access is similar to localhost.
To set access properties in the database ( example: localhost )
config setprop nut access localhost
/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/ups/upsd.conf
/usr/sbin/upsd -c reload
In localhost or public mode ( no remote access ), access to your ups is ( UPS name is '''UPS''' )
UPS@localhost
==Setting UPS Variables==
In private mode, access to your ups is ( UPS name is '''UPS''' )
In order to set UPS variables it is necessary to have enabled a user with administrative privileges as above first.
UPS@localhost or UPS@192.168.1.1 ( ups master IP )
slave ups get access with UPS@192.168.1.1 ( ups master IP )
====Setting UPS Variables====
In order to set UPS variables it is necessary to have enabled the administrative privileges as above first and you get the possibility to run command from slave ups if access is set to private as above.
In the examples below, it is assumed your UPS name is '''UPS''', that it is local, that the administrative user is '''admin''' and password '''admin'''. You can verify your UPS name via:

For remote host (slave UPS ), we need to add the IP from master UPS to run command.
upsrw -s battery.charge.low=20 -u admin -p admin UPS@192.168.2.1

You can now issue a command to the localhost UPS with similar to the following:
upscmd -u admin -p admin UPS test.battery.start
upscmd -u admin -p admin UPS test.battery.start
For remote host (slave UPS ), we need to add the IP from master UPS to run command.
upscmd -u admin -p admin UPS@192.168.2.1 test.battery.start
Where the command '''test.battery.start''' is a valid command for your UPS as previously determined by '''upscmd -l UPS'''. Depending upon the command issued you may get broadcast messages and emails relating to and confirming what the UPS is doing.
