I have done a little searching and ended up here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake-on-LAN
which does list a few options for software on Linux, OS X and even Win.
Some other folks from the #centos channel provided this just today
when I asked about it:
ftp://ftp.owlriver.com/pub/local/ORC/wakelan/ SRPM here
http://search.cpan.org/~clintdw/Net-Wake-0.02/lib/Net/Wake.pm PERL module here
I thought I'd approach the list to see what variety of options folks
have for Wake on LAN tools and opinions about them for Linux systems.
My purpose? I just need to send a simple WoL "magic packet" to a mac
mini from the Linux box I ssh to at home.
thanks!
