I downloaded the software for the upsd - UPS monitor daemon written by Authur W. Neilson III but it was written for a SysV system. I am not a programer so I haven't a clue what needs to be changed to port this program to the NeXT. (I do know that it will not compile as it stands because I tried). Has anyone ported this or any other similar program to the NeXT? Please E-mail me as I get this list from archives. Rich Showalter SysAdmin Agouron Institute rich@vaxkiller.agi.org
