USB Question

["Michael J. McGillick" <mmcgillick attbi com>]

Didn't get a response to this, so I'm posting again in hopes that someone
can help.

OK, on Shrek's recommendation, I downloaded the apcupsd software, and
installed it. However, I'm running into the identical problem I had when
trying to use NUT.

How do I figure out exactly what port the UPS is running on?

All attempts to pick a port have yielded:

  "Cannot open UPS port: No such Device".

I don't believe the problem lies with either software package, or my
configuration of these packages. I believe it lies with not understanding
how to read the current port in use, and the correct entry in /dev that
corresponds to it.

Can anyone help me figure this out?
