Hi all, I've set up a part-time server for our group. Every morning at 7:30 it automagically boots up and at 8:30 in the evening it shuts itself down. Works like a charm, really, and is very `green'. Not?
However, lately I've noticed that the machine occasionally boots right after it has shut itself down, around 8:3[123] PM that is. I've spent some time checking logs and there is nothing that caught my attention, just some Samba connections right before and some time after the shut- down/boot cycle. BTW, the machine is behind a firewall. If anyone has a clue what might cause the machine to mysteriously boot in the evening, I'd sure like to know! Right now, the only thing that I can think of is some overlooked BIOS settings (and I'm experimenting with that) that cause the machine to boot when there is traffic on the network. FYI, the machine is a Debian dedicated IBM PC 300PL. Thanks in advance. -- Olaf Meeuwissen Epson Kowa Corporation, Research and Development
