This tiny script listens for WOL (wake on LAN) packets. Depending on the amount received without a certain timeout reached it will perform predefined tasks. Toggling the purpose of your home theater pc for example can become quite easy this way.

Features

  • Execute commands via WOL (ports 7+9)
  • Root is needed so the use of sudo is advised
