Anyone know how to send a "Wake-on-Lan" packet from one machine to another.
I have our little Guestbook Kiosk which is set to be awake on a tight
schedule and sleeps the rest of the time, but after visiting hours our
team here will want to get the data so they will need to wake up the
computer remotely. We don't want to go around installing Remote Desktop
Admin on those machines, way over kill, they just need to wake up the
machine, share the screen for a few minutes, grab a file etc. Since I
will be building a UI in Rev to deal with the guestbook entries on the
kiosk box, I would really like a button on the Rev UI, to "Wake Up Kiosk"
Any ideas? I suppose I could get into stack interaoperability, but that
also seems over kill and I'm not sure that if the rev app on the Kiosk
will can still "hear" anything on sockets if the machine is sleeping
(um I guess that's a second question).
I also just downloaded an old Wake 550 app for this but is 4 years old
and adds yet another application to the framework.
