Technical notes on my code submission of 08 Dec 00 Kern Sibbald General: - Integrated Riccardo's fixes to the automatic dependencies make problem with ./configure. - Allow NIS process to run regardless of the configuration. Previously it ran only if the UPS was connected to the serial port. Changes submitted this submission: - Created a .in file for apcupsd.spec on the RedHat version that includes @VERSION@ so that it is automatically updated with each version. - Changed the version in version.h not to have the apcupsd in front of the numbers, which was redundant. - Hopefully this time, I corrected the on battery timers. I now start them when we first detect a power failure. - I've added a new time value, which is the last time the master contacted a slave. This value is then put in the STATUS output as MASTERUPD. Thus, in looking at the STATUS output, you can see if the slave is being updated from the master. - Allow the Network Information Service process to be created in any configuration. - Updated the trouble shooting section of the manual. - Updated the Win32 source build instructions. - Commented out the popup window calls on the Win32 version in apccontrol for powerfail and mainsback. These tend to be more annoying than helpful since usually you are very aware that the power has gone off, or you aren't there and the unanswered dialogue boxes remain around a long time.
