Network UPS Tools - CGI Interface - Quick Start for Debian ---------------------------------------------------------- (I) Installation ================= 1) Sample configuration files are provided in /etc/nut/ Rename without the ".sample" suffix the files hosts.conf, upsstats.html, upsstats-single.html and optionally upsset.conf. Then edit these to match your configuration. 2) Ensure these configuration files are readable by others chmod 755 /etc/nut chmod 644 /etc/nut/upsset.conf chmod 644 /etc/nut/hosts.conf chmod 644 /etc/nut/upsstats.html chmod 644 /etc/nut/upsstats-single.html 3) You will then be able to access NUT CGI through a Web browser. The URL, which depends on your httpd configuration, is: http://localhost/cgi-bin/nut/upsstats.cgi 4) NUT also provides a set of HTML files to wrap the CGIs. To use it, create a new virtual host with your preferred webserver, and point the Document Root to: /usr/share/nut/www/ You can also add an alias to an existing site, if it is supported: Alias /nut/ "/usr/share/nut/www/" Also ensure that the files in this directory have the suitable permissions. For more information on nut-cgi configuration, have a look at the following manual pages: - upsstats.html (5) - hosts.conf (5) - upsset.conf (5)
