chumbysphere forum → Software → Wake on lan from chumby
Good morning
I have a chumby one since Christmas and it's an awesome device... now i want to wake on lan a computer.
i have ssh my chumby and now i want to know the command to wake on lan a computer on the same network. I've got the mac address
computer to computer...
thanks you
There is another thread which deals with this topic:
i saw it but there is no answer for how to
so i ask again, i try find a simple way to wol a computer...
It occurs to me that there is now a full version of bash installed, so you might be able to do something like:
/bin/bash -c 'cat magicpacket > /dev/udp/192.168.1.255/9999'Thanks for you reply
I'm no use with linux programmation so i don't know how create the magic packet to wol the computer and use the bash command
can you help me for that
thank you
You can try with this file:
http://piel.alex.free.fr/download/chumby/bin/wakelan
Have fun ;-)
thanks Apiel
i download your file but know what i suppose to do?
copy this file on chumby? where? or on usb?
how does it works?
Yeap, you put on the usb, after you connect with ssh and you execute the file: ./wakelan --help
And after say me if that's work because I havent try yet, I am not at home...
Have fun
YIPI that's works thanks a lot
i try different syntax but i found the right one
i need to go to usb path : cd /mnt/usb
and write :./wakelan -- 00:01:02:03:04:05 and.....................; the computer turn on youpi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
now i think i 'll copy the wakelan file on /psp directory to remove the usb stick
thanks again...
Nice!! I am happy to heard this ;-)
that's works from usb stick but if i put the wakelan file on storage or othe directory on chumby i have this message : -ash ./wakelan: Permission denied
How can i put the file on chumby without usb stick?
thanks
It probably isn't marked as executable. Run this first:
chmod a+x wakelanthanks that's works great
Apiel can you tell me how you make your file please, i want to understand what i do...
It's very easy 
(First you need to install the toolchain)
After doanload wakelan-1.1.tar.gz I dont remember where 
and extract.
And ./configure --host=arm-linux --prefix=/usr/arm-linux
But If I remember, this step dont take care about the host parameter then I have
edited the file Makefile
replace CC=gcc by CC=arm-linux-gcc I think it's the only thing to change.
And you finish by a: make
That's all
You should try you will see, it's realy not difficult...
Have fun
this looks cool, any idea how to trigger the sending of the WOL packet once the alarm goes off / the alarm is turned off?
You can have a script that gets run when an alarm goes off, and that script can call the wake-on-LAN program. See http://wiki.chumby.com/mediawiki/index. … rm_actions
Funny idea but at the end I am sure you can also do this function directly in the BIOS of your computer So Have fun
