Sure, I've made it work by running a nut relay on a Linux server nearby, which my old NV and shiny new Pro Business listen to, but that's a kludge which seems like an additional point of failure, and which I wish were unnecessary -- especially now that it's on the to-do list as I migrate to a new Linux box, and I need to remind myself how it was set up.
