I geeked out some last night. Got the UPS Chris gave me hooked up to my server and setup. It can now turn it self off gracefuly if the power goes out for an extended period of time. Also I can see the status like load%, approximate run time, battery voltage, battery charge % all from a webinterface using apcupsd. I thought about doing a write up for it but decided against it because there is plenty of good info out there of how to set it up.
I am considering a configuration for MRTG to track load% and battery charge%. If I do I would most likely make a write up for that process/config.
I have yet to get my dynamic DNS working. But thats ok that will get worked out soon enough. Maybe.
I got paid. I'm not gonna have much or any left come next payday between rent, Shasta payback and seeing the dentist and paying my comshaft bill. Oh well.
I also singed up for google talk for some damn reason... benDC1 would be the way to contact me on it.
