according to the manual, setting NETSERVER on and NISPORT to 3551 in apcupsd.conf should allow me to run apcaccess test. However, this is what I get:
localhost heathen # apcaccess test
FATAL ERROR in apcaccess.c at line 326
Unknown command test
LOCKFILE is set to /var/lock as per the conf FWIW.
There's a Gentoo Bug 25379 which is marked "FIXED" for v3.10.6. I'm running
3.12.4. I see there is a newer version and I ran eix-sync but emerge -pu only wants to replace the one I already have.
I also changed NISIP to 127.0.0.1 without effect. Yes, I stopped and restarted the daemon after every edit.
