Operating System Specifics
With the exception of Linux SUSE and Linux Red Hat systems used by
the developers, we rely on users to help create installation scripts and in-
structions as well as to test that apcupsd runs correctly on their system.
As you can imagine, most of these people are system administrators rather
than developers so they are very busy and don’t always have time to test
the latest releases. With that in mind, we believe that you will find that a
lot of very valuable work has been already done to make your installation
much easier (and probably totally automatic).
Below, you will find a list of operating systems for which we have received
installation files:
• Alpha (see Alpha)
• Debian (see Debian)
• FreeBSD (see FreeBSD)
• HPUX (see HPUX)
• NetBSD (see NetBSD)
• OpenBSD (see OpenBSD)
• Red Hat (see Red Hat Systems)
• Slackware (see Slackware)
• SUSE (see SUSE)
• Solaris (see Sun Solaris)
• unknown (see Unknown System)
• Win32 (see Windows Systems with CYGWIN Installed)
Alpha:
The Alpha V4.0 version of apcupsd builds without compiler errors with
gcc version 2.95.2. It is unlikely that the native Alpha compiler will work
because of varargs differences. Unless you are a system guru, we recommend
that you connect your UPS to the second serial port /dev/tty01 to avoid
conflicts with the console device.
