Hello, i'm trying to decide if ill use omv or unraid for my old pc as nas, but i have major problem with unraid and wol after sleep. If i use gui and press sleep button pc go to sleep but i cant get it to start after that sending magic packet. Searching the forum I realized that the problem is with the "g" argument that is not active with the network adapter, my question is how to change it, so that allways there, is there a file that can be modified to enable this.

 

Using this commands over ssh works 

ethtool -s eth0 wol g

echo -n mem > /sys/power/state

 

But not when i use gui button

Have you seen this FAQ on WOL?

Look particularly at Point/Step 3.  There are instructions on adding ethtool line to the go file....

I have unplug usb drive and open this go file in config folder on another computer and added this to the end of file "ethtool -s eth0 wol g". But after reboot of unraid still my adapter have d argument instad of g only when i like i say manualy ssh to server and i enter above command d is change to g and then i can wol and sleep all day long until next reboot

 

 

Edit: 

I manage to fix my problem (or so it seems) by editing file directly on server by ssh-ing to  /boot/config/ and using nano to edit go file and add ethtool line but not to the end of file but before "/usr/local/sbin/emhttp &". Before i edited file on another  computer using notepad and adding ethtool line to end of file, but when i booted unraid that last line get deleted.

The problem is that Linux, Windows and Apple all use different characters for what the <ENTER> key puts in to the file.   Unraid uses both Linux and Windows line-endings (or newline) depending on which environment the file was created in.  Whenever you edit a Unraid configuration file, you have to use a editor that accounts for that fact and automatically uses the line ending sequence that it finds in that file.  (NotePad is not one of those that does!!!   Personally, I use the free version of EditPad Lite in place of the Windows default NotePad.)
