Could it be because you power the computers off. If they run 24x7 then
they stay warm, moisture and corrosion then never happen. I'm
trying to understand "Wake on LAN" so I can shut down a PC but remotely
turn it back on. In any case, if there is just a bt of heat inside the
chassis then the metal inside the PC will not condense water.

From Kubuntu distribution:
wakeonlan
https://github.com/jpoliv/wakeonlan
Description-en: Sends 'magic packets' to wake-on-LAN enabled ethernet
adapters.
With this package you can remotely wake up and power on machines which
have motherboards or network cards that support 'Wake-on-Lan' packets.
The tool allows you to wake up a single machine, or a group of machines.
You need the MAC addresses of machines to construct the WOL packets,
but, in contrast to 'etherwake', you do not need root privileges to use
the program itself as UDP packets are used.

Package: etherwake
Description-en: tool to send magic Wake-on-LAN packets
WOL (Wake-on-LAN) is a standard that allows you to turn on a computer
over an Ethernet connection. Computers with WOL-enabled network
interface cards can be woken from sleep mode, or powered up from
standby via a BIOS feature.
.
One feature that separates etherwake from other implementations is that
it also supports WOL passwords.
