Has anyone tried running apcupsd on CentOS with a usb UPS? Just curious since I'm putting together a system like this and I noticed in the apcupsd docs it say: "Linux 2.4 series kernels older than 2.4.22 do not bind the USB device to the proper driver. This is evidenced by /proc/bus/usb/devices listing the UPS correctly but it will have "driver=(none)" instead of "driver=(hid)". This affects RHEL3, among others."

I noticed the latest kernel is 2.4.21.xxx for CentOS and just wondered if this was going to cause me problems. Thanks in advance.

I have apcupsd on CentOS 3.3 that installed and works without issues.

I'm trying to install a samba PDC with Centos4 RC1, when I try to insert a machine name like:

...

adduser machine-name$

I had this response: invalid user name 'machine-name$' all string ended by $ do the same result. In centos 4 beta2 I haven't any problem, run ok.

I have tryid too:

...

adduser machine-name$ --foce-badname

but says: invalid option --

Please, somebody have a solution? thanks!!

[root@server1 root]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 3.3 (final)

So, in a word, yes.

Sounds good. Thanks for the info!
