You might have success putting 'NETDOWN=no' into the file /etc/default/halt (if it doesn't exist, just create it). I have read somewhere that it should make sure that the NIC isn't powered off on shutdown and /etc/init.d/halt appears to use this value. But it didn't help in my case. Wake on LAN only works after Windows has been booted. J. -- If I am asked 'How are you' more than a million times in my life I promise to explode.
