====== Install NUT on ipcop ======
Network ups tools is an open source ups management software, with clean design an flexible configuration. Here is a method to integrate it as a slave into ipcop:

  - I used a debian 3.0 sarge machine to build the package. I first tried on newer ubuntu 6.1 machine, but got problem with the glib version. 
  - Download source package from http://www.networkupstools.org/, i did this with 2.0.5
  - unpack it with tar xzvf
  - build it according INSTALL 

    ./configure && make

  - install it to a dedicated directory

    make DESTDIR=/tmp/package install
    make DESTDIR=/tmp/package install-conf

  - This leaves a complete /usr directory tree under /tmp/package
  - Pack it up with 

    tar czf nut-2.0.5.tgz /tmp/package

  - Copy it to your ipcop Machine with

    scp -P 222
