thanks for the apcupsd tip, it looks like the right way to go if i'm to keep things simple -- the configuration file that's required can be trimmed down to only a few lines, so that's great.

unfortunately, i've now understood that no monitoring package will work unless i use the APC-supplied serial cable (or make my own). a truly generic serial cable simply won't work.

once the cable is located and in place, i'll post my configuration. in the meantime, thanks for all your replies.
