Password?
This is a great thread, but I was wondering if anyone knows how to make WOL work when you have OS X set to "Require password to wake this computer from sleep or screen saver" in the Security control panel. When the password setting is on, waking the machine just shows a login screen, and it quickly falls back asleep when I have no way of entering the password from my remote connection.
Password?
Any solution to the fall back asleep after 30 seconds when a password is set - besides no password or no sleep?
Password?
isnt your MAC address protection enough?
Fix
I'm currently running a few services from my computer for others to use, so I turned off automatic sleep altogether. I needed a similar level of client security, so I decided the best way to lock my computer was to go to the login window. I downloaded WinSwitch (http://wincent.com/a/products/winswitch/) to create a shortcut to login window and Ciao (http://lorenb.com/software/ciao/) to automatically go to login window after a period of inactivity. You can use this setup while leaving your computer awake or asleep with the same client security.
