UPSCLI_CONNECT(3)    Network UPS Tools (NUT)	UPSCLI_CONNECT(3)

NAME
       upscli_connect - Open a connection to a NUT upsd

SYNOPSIS
       #include <upsclient.h>

       int upscli_connect(UPSCONN *ups, const char *host, int port, int flags);

DESCRIPTION
       The  upscli_connect()  function takes the pointer ups to a
       UPSCONN state structure and opens a TCP connection to  the
       host on the given port.

       flags  may  be either UPSCLI_CONN_TRYSSL to try a SSL con-
       nection, or UPSCLI_CONN_REQSSL to require  a  SSL  connec-
       tion.

       If  SSL	mode  is required, this function will only return
       successfully if it is able to establish a  SSL  connection
       with  the server.  Possible reasons for failure include no
       SSL support on the server, and if upsclient itself  hasn't
       been compiled with SSL support.

       You  must  call	upscli_disconnect(3) when finished with a
       connection, or your program will slowly	leak  memory  and
       file descriptors.

RETURN VALUE
       The  upscli_connect() function modifies the UPSCONN struc-
       ture and returns 0 on success, or -1 if an error occurs.
