Are you intentionally using that address for some reason or is there a problem on your router. I would recommend against using 169.254.*.* IP addresses if this was by choice. First thing I would recommend is fixing the issue with the airport express ip address.

run this command on your unRAID server, it is the command used in the script to detect the sleep proxy avahi-browse --resolve --parsable --no-db-lookup --terminate _sleep-proxy._udp Does that list your sleep proxy?

ok, finally had time to test and work out issues, but not to package it all up. I'll post everything here and you can test while I try to find the time to put it together in a package. For this to work you'll need python-2.6.6-i486-1.txz which you probably already have, and dnspython-1.8.0-i686-3sl.txz which you probably don't have. You can get these packages here: http://slackware.cs.utah.edu/pub/slackware/slackware-13.37/slackware/d/python-2.6.6-i486-1.txz http://repository.slacky.eu/slackware-13.37/libraries/dnspython/1.8.0/dnspython-1.8.0-i686-3sl.txz The sleepproxyclient.py python script is here: sleepproxyclient.zip You'll need to install the two python packages either by putting them in /boot/extra and rebooting or running installpkg python-2.6.6-i486-1.txz and installpkg dnspython-1.8.0-i686-3sl.txz Then you'll need to setup the sleepproxyclient.py to be executed prior to sleep, you can do this by editing your sleep script and adding it before the "echo -n mem >/sys/power/state" command; or if you are using the SimpleFeatures Sleep plugin you can add it to the settings. command line for sleepproxyclient.py needs to be in this format: /path/where/you/put/the/script/sleepproxyclient.py eth0 192.168.1.100 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx replace the args with your interface ipaddress hwaddress Right now this is all manual but I'll put it together in a plugin as soon as I get the time. I updated the simpleFeatures webGUI and Sleep plugins so the SimpleFeatures Sleep plugin is used by the Sleep button on the Main page, if you want this feature you can get the modified plugins here: http://www.walnuthead.com/unraid/simpleFeatures-v1.0rc2-base-webGUI-walnuthead.tgz http://www.walnuthead.com/unraid/simpleFeatures-v1.0rc2-s3-sleep-addon-walnuthead.tgz Greg

Your router may be registering the hostname for your server. If you have the hostname in your /etc/hosts file pointing to the wrong IP that will override what is in the router. If you dad does not have the host entry in his hosts file then the router is doing the name resolution and "tower" gets resolved to the correct IP for him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What version of unRAID are you using? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was finally able to work on this today. The only package that's needed is the pythondns. I'll post a modified script you can test tomorrow morning Greg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have not had time to work on this yet, but I have not forgotten about it Greg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have this working on my unRAID server using my AppleTV as the Sleep proxy. I'll try to get it packaged and posted tomorrow. Greg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The issue is with the PC not your unRAID server. Changing the config etc on the server will be a waste of time. You need to look at the setup on that one pc and figure out what is different about it that is preventing it from saving the credentials for the server. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's what I said here: Greg

I just built a system with an i5-2500T using the Intel DQ670W and I'm very happy with it. This board is much less expensive than the supermicro board but still gives me the remote kvm ability, 3 year warranty, 6 SATA ports, etc. I'm very happy with it. The onboard ethernet is not supported by 4.7 but is in the 5 beta, if you plan on running version 5 it'll work well. I have never used IMPI, but prefer the Intel alternative ( Intel AMT ) as it allows me to use standard vnc to connect. For you this doesn't apply as AMT is not supported with the i3-2120T, but you don't say your looking for this feature anyway. I have had my system running on this board for almost 90 days now with no issues. Greg

you set this up on your Mac

If you search in unRAID Compulsive Design for "Idle (avg)" you'll find many posts lower than 50W with drives. Are you only considering the CPUs listed or are you open to other options depending on the power consumption? Here is a direct link to the search results: Idle (avg) Greg
