I have occasionally tried to get BackupPC to wol my clients. This weekend I got serious thanks to some activity on this forum.

Here is what I have got working this weekend.

I discovered this post: /http://blog.chameeya.com/2011/08/backuppc-and-waking-machines.html
/
I read through this article and it is so simple I had to try it. And, it just works so now, I am saving energy and my family (specifically my wife) is happier.

To further save energy, I set up my router (dd-wrt) to wake the BackupPC machine.

What can I say, it just feels good, too!!
