Eaton Intelligent Power Protector on FreeBSD

Eaton IPP is a software used to manage UPS made by Eaton. It is used to launch scripts on events (ex: power loss) and record logs. But it is only available as a binary distribution and specifically not for FreeBSD.

Here is a way to install it on FreeBSD 10.1:
1- download the 32-bit linux binary version 1.42.109: ipp-linux-1.42.109-1.i386.rpm (do not download the 64-bit version, even if you are running a 64-bit FreeBSD system)
2- install the following ports: /usr/ports/emulators/linux-c6 (do not forget to set compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.18 in /etc/sysctl.conf and to call sysctl -f /etc/sysctl.conf after having loaded the linux.ko kernel module) and /usr/ports/devel/linux_libusb. Note that the 32 bit version must be installed as libusb-0.1.so.4, libusb.so and libusb.so.3 in /compat/linux/usr/lib, not the 64 bit version, since mc2 loads this shared object at startup.
3- add linux_enable="YES" to /etc/rc.conf and launch "kldload linux" as root
4- extract the content of the RPM archive (if not already done, add the package rpm2cpio):
rpm2cpio.pl < ipp-linux-1.42.109-1.i386.rpm | ( cd /compat/linux; cpio -id )
5- install the software: "cd /compat/linux/usr/local/Eaton/IntelligentPowerProtector; ./mc2-install" and choose Y or the default answer for each question.
6- add /compat/linux/usr/local/Eaton/IntelligentPowerProtector/mc2 to /etc/rc.local and run /compat/linux/usr/local/Eaton/IntelligentPowerProtector/mc2 as root
7- connect to http://localhost:4679, log-in as admin/admin, select Auto Discovery on the left, choose your UPS once discovered and click on "Set as power source".
8- change the default password (click on User List on the left).

Freewares I designed a few years ago

I often develop software during my job. You will only find here software I designed during my free time or during my Ph.D thesis.
Since Open Source projects help the community of programmers and users, and since I often use free software, the software I develop during my spare time is open source : support and sources available for free on demand.
Moreover, JavaShare is GPL (the others are not).
