Nevertheless, our desire is to see as many people using <b>apcupsd</b> as possible. <p>As with bug reporting, there two ways of asking for support. <p>The simplest way is to send an email to the <a href="mailto:apcupsd-devel@apcupsd.com"> apcupsd-devel@apcupsd.com</a> email list. Please see <b>Information Needed</b> below for what to include in your support request. <p>The second way is to use the support tracking tool on SourceForge at <a href="http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=54413&func=browse"> http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=54413&func=browse</a>.<br>This second method is less convenient for the the developers as it requires us to login to SourceForge to respond. However, this method is preferrable if you are submitting a bug or if you want your request tracked. You do not need to have a login to SourceForge to use either the mailing list or any of the reporting/tracking tools. <p> Which ever method you use, please follow the instructions below. <h2>Information Needed</h2> For us to respond to a support request, we normally need the following as the minimum information: <ul> <li>Your operating system</li> <li>The version of apcupsd you are using</li> <li>The model and UPS cable you are using</li> <li>A clear description of the problem</li> </ul> The first three of these items can be fulfilled by sending us a copy of your <b>config.out</b> file, which is in the main <b>apcupsd</b> source directory after you have done your <b>./configure</b>. <p>In addition, we will often need a copy of your apcupsd configuration file. If you think it is a configuration problem, please don't hesitate to send them preferably as an attachment. </td> </blockquote> </body> </html>
