(On Gentoo according to the Howto: Edit /etc/conf.d/local.stop like below: # /etc/conf.d/local.stop # This is a good place to unload any misc. # programs you started above. # For example, if you are using OSS and have # "/usr/local/bin/soundon" above, put # "/usr/local/bin/soundoff" here. /usr/sbin/ethtool -s eth0 wol g ) - you need to make sure the net interface is not switched off during shutdown. (On Gentoo : You have to edit /etc/conf.d/rc like below: # RC_DOWN_INTERFACE allows you to specify if RC will bring the interface # compeletly down when it stops. The default is yes, but there are some # instances where you may not want this to happen such as using Wake On LAN. RC_DOWN_INTERFACE="no" ) Looks reasonable from what ihave read until now :) BTW: Thats the search i have done http://www.google.de/search?q=wake+on+lan+gentoo&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&meta=lr%3Dlang_de&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:de:official ;) HTH Steffen
