Can you use it for Linux for say a print server?

Sure, I tried to set it up on my firewall/dialout box but found that my motherboard would override the 1/0 switch on the front of the box when the WoL connector was attached, so the only way to power it up was across the lan. This proved _way_ too inconvienent when I wanted to work only on that machine. As always YMMV. Tim
