Wake On Lan Trials and Tribulations

Doug Smith
I’ve been playing around with Wake On Lan on my network for quite some time. Wake on Lan is a system whereby remote computers can wake up other computers that are sleeping.

NAS update 2

Doug Smith
I got FreeNAS up and running without too much work started to transfer some files to the new share I created.
