FSOCKOPEN broadcast fails/was:How to wake OTHER workstations
Posted: Wed Jan 12, 2011 5:00 pm
Hello all!
I am working already for some time on the following goal: I want to wake up other workstations/servers using a PHP-page running on the QNAP TS-809U (Version 3.3.4 build 1019T) Please note: I do NOT want to wake up the Turbonas, but use it to wake other stations.
The target machine is WOL enabled and it works fine to wake it up using other WOL-tools on other workstations.
When trying the well known scripts (e.g. http://stephan.mestrona.net/wol/hilfe.php) nothing happens. Further investigation gave me the intention, that on the QNAP it is not allowed to create IPv4-UDP-sockets and/or to send broadcasts via this socket.
- Is this correct?
- Can this be configured?
- Are there any other solutions for this?
Best regards,
