Re: System downtime wednesday for maintainance.

I had no problems configuring apcupsd as I did a month ago using
pkgsrc on DragonFly.
Im using a BackupUPS Pro 1400 with a custom made smartups serial cable.
relevant aucupsd options I used were
UPSCABLE smart
UPSTYPE smartups
DEVICE /dev/ttyd0

Would be nice if we were able to use the killpower command after disk
syncing, however this might be hard to accomplish with the current
shutdown sequence.
