Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Using NUTS, about every one of them, I'm using APC and TrippLite

Agreed; I have two Cyberpowers that NUTS works well with. That said, I hate configuring NUTS. It's like the sendmail of power supply management systems. I'm not aware of any others, though, so it's what there is.

Oh, and Home Assistant plays really well with NUTS!

I agree, configuration is text files like good old sendmail, what a nightmare memory, IIRC there was even books about configuring sendmail...

Anyway NUTS works well, at one time I even installed it on my ASUS router and set it as a IP server, and from a windows PC using winNUT I was able to see it.
