Wake On Lan custom Tool

Davide Depaoli_3 — Fri, 07 Dec 2007 12:55:51 GMT

Hi,
I'm configuring a Wake on Lan tool, but I don't know how to make the command interactive in order to pass the nic mac address of the server to be waked.
I have SIM for windows and the command (wol.exe) resides on the SIM server (the %1 variables after the command doesn't works).

thanks in advance
regards
Davide

Hi Fred,
thank you for your script. It works, but when I run the script it fails with following error:

"The "Run as" user does not have adequate permission to manipulate this file: Con
nection timed out: connect"

Do you have any idea ?
regards
Davide

hi

the second tools uses root as a user. If you are on windows a few changes are needed :
1/unregister the tool : mx -r -f wol.xml
2/change user to administrator
3/register again the tool with mxtool -a -f wol.xml

I used a linux based tool to create this one and did not pay attention to this...

hope it helps
