NUT Package (2.8.1 and above)

@endy66 That's what I thought.
The short version is that you are wasting your time trying to set up a username/password for a remote HA client because the HA integration doesn't use it. You don't need to enter a username/password when you set up the integration.
Since you asked, here's the longer version...
You won't see a login from the integration because it isn't a NUT client, and doesn't actually send a LOGON command to upsd. The NUT HA integration doesn't even send the username and password for remote connections. And even if it did send the username/password, upsd would not attempt to validate it until a command (such as LOGON or an instant command) is sent by the client.
NUT allows read-only access to ups information without a login which is how the HA integration is written. It connects every 60 seconds (default), polls current status, and disconnects. An actual NUT monitoring client is different. It connects, sends username and password, then issues a LOGIN command to attach to the UPS. It remains connected and polls the UPS on a frequent interval (usually less than 15 seconds).
For upsd, the difference is significant. A logged in client is something that upsd is responsible for, and it will monitor the client connection and wait for the client to disconnect before initiating its own shutdown. A non logged in client is expected to be something like a web page. Information display only.
I believe that the only time the username/password for HA NUT is used is if you are running the dedicated HA OS and want to be able to issue instant commands to the UPS. Entertainingly, even though it has not sent a LOGIN command, the HA integrations always sends a LOGOUT command before disconnecting from upsd. Very polite.
Thank you so much for this detailed explanation! I didn't knew that there's such a difference or even that the HA integration isn't a "real" NUT client and it also works that different. Then I'll remove the second user from my pfSense.
However the integration on HA still helps for notifying if there's a power outtage, even if it's not instant. The server where HA (a VM) runs on, has proper NUT integration (the first client), so it still can shut down properly. I just wondered what's going on as I haven't seen any "login" logs in the pfSense box. Now I know. Thanks again so much for your awesome support, appreciate it a lot! -

You're welcome.

Just FYI, HA may miss the power outage completely if it is shorter than the polling interval.

That's true yes. I set up a delay of some seconds because I only need a notification if it's a real / longer power outage, otherwise my UPS will just kick in and since it has the capacity to provide power for almost an hour, it's okay to get the norification a bit delayed.

@endy66 Cool. Just wanted to make sure you were aware.

I dunno what happened. I just updated to 2.8.2_1 and now my tripplite USB connection isn't working.
[nutdev1]
driver = "tripplite_usb"
port = "auto"
vendorid = "09AE"
productid = "0001"
product = "TRIPP LITE SMART500RT1U"
vendor = "Tripp Lite"

@incith I just did the package upgrade and although the service appeared to be working, it wasn't.
I went to Services -> UPS and UPS Status brought up errors, but then I went to the "UPS Settings" tab and everything looked fine so just pressed Save at the bottom and service is running fine. Maybe try pressing the Save button from the settings page and see if this works for you?

NUT Package (2.8.1 and above)
and now its
NUT Package (2.8.1 and above - and back again)
as I received a message from my pfSense :
Notifications in this message: 1 ================================ 13:01:10 The following updates are available and can be installed using System > Package Manager: nut: 2.8.2_1 ==> 2.8.2 (downgrade)
So the update is a downgrade ?
Or is 2.8.2 a more recent as 2.8.2_1 because the name (numbering) changed ?

Hello all,
it seems i have new/old issues with nut 2.8.2_1 on 2.7.2-RELEASE (amd64)

Not sure if this is a reasonable forum to post this in, but maybe somebody has a helpful idea.
I have NUT 2.8.2.1 installed on pfSense+ (Netgate 8200).
I have three Synology units in my network. Two DS120j and one DS1522. Both of the DS120j can see the NUT server and configure it. The DS1522 just reports "No UPS is connected." Settings are identical in all Synology. I have tried disabling the firewall in the DS1522 (although the DS120j are happy with firewall enabled).
Any suggestions on what to look for?

Hey all,
Sorry, but I am out of the loop with whatever change just happened. I tried to get the update locked in before my trip, but it didn’t happen. I won’t be able to work on an update until the week of the 19th.
In the interim, if you have an outstanding issue I suggest looking earlier in this thread for executables that I posted several weeks ago.
Again, sorry for the upheaval.
Denny

I have some additional clues:
upsc NUTIP returns Connection Refused on DS1522, returns correct status on other Synologies.
telnet NUTIP 3493 returns Connection Refused on DS1522, connects to NUT server from any other computer on the network.
It appears to me that this is not an issue with pfSense (on which the NUT server is running) since it works for every device except the DS1522. I tried adding a special firewall rule to pfSense, but it made no difference. My guess is something is wrong with the DS1522's request.

@incith, @LanterIT, @ha11oga11o
If you are still having a problem with the current package, can you post your configs please?
Also, can you please confirm that you performed the
pkg upgrade
step mentioned above?

@incith said in NUT Package (2.8.1 and above):
libusb1: Could not open any HID devices: insufficient permissions on everything

Did you say if you are running as root?
Also, have you checked to see if there is a quirk registered for your UPS? -
@dennypage I have the same symptoms with the tripplite_usb driver.
I have a quirk registered and "user=root" in the config file.it worked without issue with version 2.8.2 and stopped working with 2.8.2_1 (as previously reported by others)
I've tried unplugging the UPS' USB cable and plugging it back in. I've tried manually loading the driver as the root user, the netgate (in my case the 4100) recognizes that the UPS is connected and on ugen0.2
I haven't attempted a downgrade yet to get it working again, I've just stopped the NUT daemon for now but I would like for this to be working again.
