jonhd: Re Suspend & Hibernate not appearing on the menus: Have you
enabled suspend and hibernate in the settings?  In the SC web UI, go to
Settings->Plugins->Server Power Control and set and clear the
appropriate check boxes.  I don't enable them on linux systems by
default because of my experience with suspend and hibernation on my
main linux box running Fedora 8: it just doesn't seem to work.  I'm
hoping that I'm in the minority here.  Maybe I should make the default
enabled in the next version.

In terms of getting WOL to work, on my own system with a EPIA board,
it's been enough to just add the following to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:

Code:
--------------------
    #set correct wol settings
  /sbin/ethtool -s eth0 wol g
--------------------


If that doesn't do it, one trick that folks seem to use in the fedora
world is to modify the /etc/rc.d/init.d/halt script.  Adding:

Code:
--------------------
    /sbin/ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.199 up
  /usr/sbin/ethtool -s eth0 wol g
--------------------

to the script (using the right IP, of course) at the next-to-the-last
line. This seems to make the WOL ability "stick" in that the WOL
features are enabled for the nic just as the machine is powering down.
