wakeonlan
|
||
|
=========
|
||
|
|
||
|
This module provides a wrapper around the [wakeonlan][1] tool.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Usage
|
||
|
-----
|
||
|
|
||
|
To use this wrapper, create the *~/.wakeonlan* directory, and place in it one
|
||
|
file for each device you would like to be able to wake. Give the file a name
|
||
|
that describes the device, such as its hostname.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Each file should contain a line with the MAC address of the target device and
|
||
|
the network broadcast address. For instance, there might be a file
|
||
|
*~/.wakeonlan/leto* with the following contents:
|
||
|
|
||
|
00:11:22:33:44:55:66 192.168.0.255
|
||
|
|
||
|
To wake that device, use the following command:
|
||
|
|
||
|
wake leto
|
||
|
|
||
|
For more information on the configuration file format, read the
|
||
|
[wakeonlan man page][2].
