Is there any chance that this plugin could be extended to connect to a nut (network ups tools) server? I have several Eaton Powerware UPS's and I would like to monitor them with HS3.

My nas and Xenservers use nut also.

I have never tried and tested the plugin with HS3 On Linux, nor even tried HS3 on Linux. So no the plugin has not been developed to work on Linux, but I assume running it on Windows and connecting it to an HS3 running on Linux should work but do not have any experience with this. Have you posted in the HS3 forum as well to check if there is any issue?

I'm not sure where to ask about that on the forum. HST obviously won't fix the issue because it are 3rd party plugins. But I also have 2 3rd party plugins which require a license running fine on Linux, RFXCOM and iTunes DAAP.

I think I found a clue in the following thread http://forums.homeseer.com/showthrea...ight=licensing
Apparently, HS3 needs a copy of the plugin on the Linux side. Now, if I provide that with the apcupsd plugin it doesn't work because Linux is case-sensitive. I have to rename it or link it to the name HSPI_apcupsd.exe instead of hspi_apcupsd.exe, otherwise it's not recognized at all. But now, HS3 complains:
Code:03:01:06:3106:[Error]->Error, Class not found in plugin EXE, maybe namespace is not correct,? Note filename is case sensitive!: HSPI_apcupsd.exe Class: HSPI_apcupsd.HSPI->

If your intend is to run the plugin on Windows and HS3 on Linux, there appears to be an issue in HS3 as described in http://forums.homeseer.com/showthrea...ight=licensing ; you might want to open or update a bugzilla to see if HS can fix it.

I guess this would be a question for the HS team, but why is the plugin in the HS3 Linux updater if its not tested and not working?
