OK, this is solved now so thought I would post back to the list in case future users search the archives for the same problem and for anyone who is interested ;) Thanks Tony, you answer was partially it. I hadn't correctly enabled WOL on the NIC card: > I don't know about your Dell, but on my HP ML110 servers, I had to add > a line to ifcfg-eth0 to make ethtool tell the LAN port to enable the > wake-on-lan function: > > ETHTOOL_OPTS="wol g" > > You will need to take the interface down and up after adding the line. > > Cheers > Tony Also the other problem was I was using a dual Gigabit NIC, in particular I was using the 2nd port, but it turns out WOL only works on the first port! Just in case anyone finds them self's in a similar situation!
