Waking Mac over WiFi by Linux Does anyone know if a mac can be woken up from the sleep state by a Linux machine over WiFi? The router is non-Apple.
Under System Preferences -> Energy Saver, select the checkbox "Wake for network access". Note that for Mac laptops this can only be enabled while the laptop is connected to a power source.



Accessing the Mac over the network from your Linux machine, such as through SSH, will wake the machine.
