Re: Wake Over LAN please help

Actually, the client can be on any machine that regularly gets booted. I have it on one machine and I had my FTP server on a different machine for a long time. Now, my FTP server is my D-Link DNS-323 NAS disk, I still run the updater on the same machine. Since it's updating the pointer to the public IP address, any machine that shares that address (any machine behind the same router) will work just fine for the updater.
