Please forgive this really basic question, I have tried to google
without much success.  I have just purchased an HP Microserver on which
I have installed Ubuntu and SB server and which I will eventually run
headless.  I thought I would try and get WOL working on this, which I
have never used before.  While installing Ubuntu I was required to set a
username and password and I have to enter these whenever the computer is
switched on.  My question is, will I need to enter username and password
each time the computer is WOL'd?  If so, it sort of negates the
uselfulness of WOL as I will have to treck the length of the house to do
so and attach a keyboard and screen.  If this is the case, then I
suppose disabling the requirement for logging in with username and
password is an option although insecure?   How do people handle this?

Thanks

Jerry
