I use VNC Manager from SmartCode for my remote management ( www.s-code.com). It capable of doing a lot of admin tasks, one of them being Wake-on-LAN. Basic version costs $42. Has utility to scan your network for IP addresses and MAC addresses. You can save that info for use with WOL. You can wake one PC or as many as you highlight. VNC on the PC is not required for this to work.
So far, any PC I have that supports WOL works with VNC Mgr. ---------------------- Bob Hartung Wisco Industries, Inc. 736 Janesville St. Oregon, WI 53575 Tel: (608) 835-3106 x215 Fax: (608) 835-7399 e-mail: bhartung(at)wiscoind.com _____ From: Tom Miller [mailto:tmil...@hnncsb.org] To: NT System Admin Issues [mailto:ntsysadmin@lyris.sunbelt-software.com] Sent: Fri, 14 Jan 2011 08:23:44 -0600 Subject: Wake on LAN options Folks, For those of you using wake-on lan, which product do you use? Our workstation management product is a Dell KACE Kbox, which works well, but the wake on lan doesn't have any features other than "on". I recall seeing some comments on other products (perhaps not on this list). I'd like to wake up PCs, run scans, updates before staff arrive. It would be nice if there were some sort of agent product where I don't have to reconfigure my infrastructure for wake-on-lan.
