Summary: check_ups incompatible with nut 2.0

Initial Comment:
Hi,

nut is now at 2.0 level and have changed completly the 
communication protocol used to monitoring the ups state and 
values (nut 2.0 is included in various recent distributions like 
fedora). 

This breaks completly the check_ups plugin.

I have reworked it and you'll find it joined to this report.

As the old plugin works with nut-0.x and nut-1.x, I propose to add 
this as a new check_upsv2 plugin.

I am currently using it and it is stable.

Regards,

I also ran into this and found this bug after the fact.  I
wrote a perl script to use the upsc command instead.  The
upsc command works with both versions.  Since the upsc
command comes with the nut client, it should always work
with the server.  Using this perl script, I am able to
update my nut servers one at time without the need to fiddle
with my Nagios config or plugins.

I was going to submit the script to the contrib section of
the CVS tree, but I haven't quite figured out how to do that
yet.  If someone wants it, I will be happy to email the
script to them until I submit it (if its even accepted).
