...

If you do not get similar output, check the permissions of the /etc/apcupsd
directory and of those of /etc/apcupsd/hosts.conf to ensure that your
web server can access it.

At many sites such as mine, the Apache

server is not running as root, so you must be careful to ensure that that
/etc/apcupsd/hosts.conf and /etc/apcupsd/multimon.conf are world read-
able.

To invoke multimon in your Web browser, enter:

http:///cgi-bin/multimon.cgi

You should get something similar to the screen shot shown below.

If you wish additional control over the colors, type faces, and sizes of the
multimon output, you might wish to use multimoncss.cgi in place of multi-
mon. In this case, you simply edit the multimon.css file to specify the styles
you prefer. There are several sample Style Sheet files in the cgi subdirectory
of the source tree.
