Hey, The removal of this utility is unfortunate, but not the end of the world.. the ports database at openports.se didn't list net/wol but I contacted them and they gratefully corrected it.
Still, having such functionality in the base system.. without requiring devel/gettext.. would be nice. :-) Could something like the following be considered? not as-is probably, I'm not the best programmer on earth.. and maybe it should be part of ping(1) instead? Example: sudo ifconfig int wake 00:00:00:00:00:00 The code is respectfully copy & pasted from the old wake(8), written by Marc Balmer/Eugene M. Kim. -Brynet [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/octet-stream which had a name of ifconfig-wol.diff]
