Trouble with setup NUT add-on password

Configuration
1

Hello everyone! I’ve try to start NUT add-on. I have HAOS installed on Raspberry PI5. When I want to configure NUT add-on to setup user name and password I got error Unknown error, see supervisor logs

users:

  • username: “admin”
    password: “admin”
    instcmds:
    - all
    action:
    devices:
  • name: myups
    driver: usbhid-ups
    port: auto
    config:
    mode: netserver
    shutdown_host: false

This is line from Supervisor Log
2026-01-17 05:55:45.218 WARNING (MainThread) [supervisor.utils.pwned] Can’t fetch HIBP data: Timeout

HIBP is not related to NUT - it is checking for compromised passwords across the Internetz, behind the scenes as part of ‘normal’ HomeAssistant supervisor password functionality.

Are you having external internet connection related issues?

Is the HIBP server down? Can you ping it?

If they are up, report it as a HomeAssistant supervisor flaw in GitHub and hope they check for return codes and report them in the logs as part of product improvements.

[Withdraws silently, not banging drum as to why a product such as HomeAssistant, touted as heavily local and independent of the internetz, needs to silently connect across the internet to check if a user selected password only used locally may be on a compromised list used by hackers, and then give an ambiguous ‘Unknown’ entry in the log when it ungracefully fails!!! - grrrr]

I’ve tried to use high complicate password, may be I will try to setup password without internet connection.
