mp-form.pl - Send magic packets with your web server
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is my trial of waking up PCs with a form via web server.
|
||
|
|
The perl script reads in a text file which contains lines of the form
|
||
|
|
aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff 12.34.56.78 or
|
||
|
|
aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff foo.bar.com
|
||
|
|
aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
|
||
|
|
optional a broadcast address mask can be prefixed:
|
||
|
|
192.168.1.255-aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The script is based on wake.pl by Ken Yap who is also the author of the Etherboot package.
|
||
|
|
The script uses CGI.pm to parse form input and Socket.pm to send the magic packets, both
|
||
|
|
modules should belong to your perl distribution. The script runs with linux as well as
|
||
|
|
with NT, with NetWare you have to use the Socket.NLP from recent Perl build #334, with
|
||
|
|
Perl build #333 and earlier I got an error from the Socket.pm. You should also update
|
||
|
|
your Perl to minimum #331 from CPAN: http://www.cpan.org/ports/index.html#netware.
|
||
|
|
This script uses only broadcast so you don't need root rights to use it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To install the script copy it to your ../cgi-bin directory. Then for Linux do a chmod 755
|
||
|
|
to the script. Modify the lines which point to the location of the maclist. If you do not
|
||
|
|
have a maclist, the form could save new entries to a list (with unix perhaps you have to
|
||
|
|
create an empty file). Check also the first line of mp-form.pl and modify it to point to
|
||
|
|
your perl5 location. For NetWare copy the script to /novonyx/suitespot/docs/perlroot.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Older version: If you have problems running the script with CGI.pm you could try the older
|
||
|
|
version mp-form1.pl which uses cgi-lib.pl to parse form input. You can get cgi-lib.pl
|
||
|
|
from http://cgi-lib.berkeley.edu/. With NetWare you should also use mp-form1.pl as using
|
||
|
|
CGI.pm consumes much memory. The older version is also included in the zip archive.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A modified version of the original script is now also included which runs with older
|
||
|
|
Getopt::Std.pm as shipped with NetWare. This script you could use from command line
|
||
|
|
or from cron. With NetWare copy the script to /perl/scripts; then call from console with:
|
||
|
|
perl wakeup.pl <parameters>.
