Wake On Lan

[glennbtn]

Hi All

I am having issues getting wake on lan working with my HP microserver. I have made sure the bios is enabled and followed a couple of site on how to setup


$ su # aptitude install ethtool # ethtool -s eth0 wol gThis can be automated by editing /etc/network/interfaces:

iface eth0 inet dhcp post-up /sbin/ethtool -s $IFACE wol g post-down /sbin/ethtool -s $IFACE wol g

Also tried editing /etc/default/halt with

NETDOWN=no

But nothing seems to work. Running proxmox 2.2 so any advise would be good.

Thanks

Glenn

Hi,
work for me on a HP N40L without trouble (switched on in the BIOS). As client I use gWakeOnLan.

Why you use something inside the interface-file of the switched off server?? This can do only make a differences after booting, or do I missunderstand something?

Have you running the latest BIOS?
