SYNOPSIS
--------
#include <nutclient.h>
typedef void* NUTCLIENT_t;
void nutclient_authenticate(
NUTCLIENT_t client,
const char* login, const char* passwd);
void nutclient_logout(NUTCLIENT_t client);
void nutclient_device_login(NUTCLIENT_t client, const char* dev);
int nutclient_get_device_num_logins(NUTCLIENT_t client, const char* dev);
void nutclient_device_primary(NUTCLIENT_t client, const char* dev);
/* OBSOLETED name: */
void nutclient_device_master(NUTCLIENT_t client, const char* dev);
void nutclient_device_forced_shutdown(NUTCLIENT_t client, const char* dev);
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The *nutclient_authenticate()* function authenticates the user.
* 'login' is the user name.
* 'passwd' is the user password.
The *nutclient_logout()* function disconnects gracefully from the server.
The *nutclient_device_login()* function logs the fact that a system
is drawing power from this UPS.
The *nutclient_get_device_num_logins()* function retrieves the number of
clients which have been logged for this device.
The *nutclient_device_master()* and *nutclient_device_primary()* (note:
the former is obsoleted since NUT v2.8.0 in favor of the latter) functions
make sure that primary-mode functions like FSD are available if necessary.
The *nutclient_device_forced_shutdown()* function sets the "forced shutdown"
flag on the device.
'dev' is the device name.
