Can't configure a master for the newer nis based master/slave system from ebuild. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set "NETSERVER on" in apcupsd.conf on master server. 2. Set "UPSTYPE net" & "DEVICE master.mydomain.com:3551" on slave. 3. Start the daemons Actual Results: Slave can't communicate connect to the master. Expected Results: Slave should read status from the master on port 3551. Unlike the old system, the master is oblivious to the slaves.
Created attachment 28494 [details] An ebuild that configures nis master/slave binaries amoung other things This ebuild introduces two application specific USE flags; apcnetmaster and apcnetslave. I don't know how these are supposed to be defined in the general Gentoo framework. I know other applications have flags that, frustratingly, don't show up in the general USE flag list also... This ebuild also uses the usb, icc, and cgi USE flags to tweak the resultant binaries.
For additional info on the required configure flags see http://www.sibbald.com/apcupsd/3.10.x-manual/ch02s04.html
Please have a look at the apcupsd-3.10.16-r1.ebuild. It added support for the gd USE-flag which is a good example how to handle local use flags.
Got no response, closing this bug.
