reinoud, Thanks for providing further details. It sounds like you are using "Wake On Link" which means any activity sent towards your machine while in standby will wake the it. When you switch on a laptop and try to log on to the domain, you send network traffic to your W2k03 server. I thought that Wake on Link was designed to wake a machine when the network cable is plugged/unplugged from a port.
I had to disable this setting as my machine would not go into standy properly. It would only stay in standby for about 1 second before waking up again. At the time I reckoned that the router was somehow polling the ports causing the link state to change and the PC to wake. I'll do more testing tonight with my SB turned off to see if I can sucessfully send the PC to sleep with Wake on Link enabled. If it turns out that the SB is sending packets to the server even when (the SB2 is supposed to be) off, then there is a bigger issue the WOL packets. That would suggest that anyone using wake on link will have problems with an SB2 on their network. -- oreillymj _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
