One problem I've seen is shutting down the NIC. When ifdown is executed, 
all WOL settings are lost. The solution is pretty easy: bring the card up 
just before the machine is powered off.

Copy this snippet to /sbin/halt.local where it will be called 
from /etc/init.d/halt on shutdown.

#!/bin/sh
ifconfig eth0 up
ethtool -s eth0 wol g

No changes to any files are required. YMMV. ;)
