The following seems as a decent introduction: If you are in doubt about other folders try googling “Linux Filesystem Hierarchy” which should give plenty reading on the subject. Noobie: /etc is a folder on the filesystem that traditionally contains all configuration files for the programs installed. First I see what is supported by network driver: To enable WOL from Linux the option has to be set before shutting Linux down. I selected the fan called “advanced” where I found to settings I need to turn on: After selecting “configure” as in the screenshot:
WAKEONLAN COMMAND LINUX WINDOWS
In Windows I need to go to the network setting and choose my network adapter. It always takes more screenshots to explain anything in Windows, but there is not really any way around it. A good indicator is to check whether the lights around the network cable is turned on or not on the back of the computer when the computer has been shutdown. I didn’t find it in the BIOS of my ASUS PW5 DH motherboard, but it works fine. Somewhere in the BIOS there will hopefully be some setting to enable WOL. Installing a program to send the magical network package on my server.When a WOL-enabled computer is turned off the network port will stay active and listen for a certain packages and in if it receives such a package it will boot the computer. Wake on Lan (WOL) is a technology to turn on a computer by sending it a specific network package. I need something to turn on my desktop when I wasn’t home. This was the problem – if I was out I couldn’t access my files since my desktop was turned off when I am not home. The only files I don’t store on my server is media files, such as movies and music – these are stored on my desktop. I have all my main data on my server and use the files on my laptop and desktop by sshfs and NFS. My laptop a Thinkpad X30, another Thinkpad which acts as server and a desktop computer.
