RE: Wake a Sleeping Mac (Remotely) If this is true, and I can wake my Powerbook(s) remotely, it'd be wicked cool. Since I never turn them off (they're always sleeping), remotely waking them would make it seem like they're always on. Crosses fingers and grins.

Update: I got it working using this perl utility. However, it only works if I have an Ethernet cable plugged in. Since I never use an Ethernet cable these days (isn't the whole point of a laptop for the wireless connectivity?), wakeonlan is not an option for me - until the AirPort cards support it.
