Hi. I'm new to this group and would appreciate your help. Specifically, I have an old 400 MHz iMac G3 with an external 1 GB hard drive running OS 10.4.11, on which I would like to store music and pictures for a small home network of 4 Macs.
In order to access the music and pictures, I'd like to be able to wake this G3 remotely from other computers on the network using wakeonlan or a similar application. However, I noticed that the options tab of the energy saver preferences contains no option for "Wake for Ethernet network administrator access", which does appear on other Macs I've seen running OS 10.4.11. Does anyone have any suggestions for getting this option to appear on the energy saver options panel of the iMac G3 or for remotely waking the G3? Also, speed wise, does it make more sense to create a startup partition on the external firewire 400 drive rather than use the iMac's original 10GB internal hard drive? Thanks in advance! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's iMac List, a group for those using G3, G4, G5, and Intel Core iMacs as well as Apple eMacs.
