Currently, I'm not trying to determine the wakeup reason. It would be trivial to write the scheduled wakeup time to srvrpowerctrl.prefs at suspend-time and then check that value on wakeup. If that value is within two minutes of the current time, SrvrPowerCtrl would decide that the wakeup was RTC induced...if not, then the wakeup was caused by an externality: WOL, power-button, springing forth from Zeus' head fully formed, etc.
Looking through /var/log/messages, I don't see any way of determining the mac address of the network device that issued the magic packet that initiated the WOL of the system. I don't really know how you'd go about determining which device or client woke the system up via WOL. -- gharris999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gharris999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=115 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
