Assuming you are talking about a Mac, instead of Wake-On-LAN, perhaps
use something that will wake up your mac kiosk at specific times and
then make sure you hit that window to do all your remote maintenance.
The Mac-ish things I read about online were iCal and Automator. I'm
certain that there is probably something you can set in cron or some
other unix command to do what you need.
But ... why not have the kiosk send you the file before it goes to
sleep for the night? Seems like that would be easier.

I just downloaded WakeOnLan 0.90 From version tracker. It's the
latest and works on Leopard. BUT:
Wake-on-Lan is not going to work. the Kiosk machine is connected
via Airport and WiFi protocol as of Nov 97 does not yet support
sending Wake-on-Lan packet to a Airport connected machine.
Any other solutions?

I have our little Guestbook Kiosk which is set to be awake on a
tight schedule and sleeps the rest of the time, but after visiting
hours our team here will want to get the data so they will need to
wake up the computer remotely. We don't want to go around
installing Remote Desktop Admin on those machines, way over kill,
they just need to wake up the machine, share the screen for a few
minutes, grab a file etc. Since I will be building a UI in Rev to
deal with the guestbook entries on the kiosk box, I would really
like a button on the Rev UI, to "Wake Up Kiosk"
Any ideas? I suppose I could get into stack interaoperability, but
that also seems over kill and I'm not sure that if the rev app on
the Kiosk will can still "hear" anything on sockets if the machine
is sleeping
(um I guess that's a second question).
I also just downloaded an old Wake 550 app for this but is 4
years old and adds yet another application to the framework.
