I have an IBM Netfinity Server. Today, I upgraded it from OpenSUSE 11.0 to 11.1, using upgrade, rather than reinstall. One weird thing that occurred is that Wake on Lan no longer works, even though it is enabled in the BIOS. It's beyond me, how an OS upgrade would affect this. Any ideas? The last time I used WOL was just before the upgrade and it hasn't worked since.
Look around. There is a new (to me) netconfig and in my tweaking around yesterday I saw an option somewhere, probably in etc/sysconfig Editor, that disabled WOL. It was an option connected with netconfig IIRC. HTH.
I guess that's the "halt_network" setting. It's currently set to "no". According to that setting "yes" is supposed to stop WOL.
I have tried setting it to both yes and no. Neither re-enables WOL. This is something I need. How can I get it back??? Do I have to reinstall 11.0??? -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
