Thanks


Will it awaken the other(s) without any action by me other than turning on the primary?

What about individual passwords and user accounts...can I have them too on the WOL secondaries or do I need to drop the idea of passwords and user accounts on them?

3. You will need a script on SOYO that sends a WOL packet to each other machine you want to be woken up. Run that ^ on login. You can set this to happen automatically from within the SOYO OS.

Any account management strategy you decide to use will be completely separate - WOL is a standard for powering on PCs over an ethernet network - nothing else!
