Notes: "wake for network access" is a protocol where one sends a carefully crafted Ethernet packet and the ethernet card, upon receiving it, sends a "wake up" signal to the machine.
Normal apps don't send those packets that cause a wake up. And in terms of "keep alive" a connection, there would be a difference between an idle xterm with no activity (where there is a simple keep alive every few minutes is enough to keep window active) and an active app with say a clock display resulting in constant flow of traffic where lack of ACKs will likely cause timeout much sooner than on an idle xterm. There may not be a solution to solve all problems, but ability to keep xterms and other idle apps/connections "alive" while the X terminal/server is asleep would be welcome. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
