===Automatically Power-up Workstations (Wake-on-Lan)===
There are several advantages of this method:
:* All computers (server/workstations) can be shut-down when not in use (saves energy).
:* Saves time for teacher/volunteer by clicking on icon to automatically powering up workstations as opposed to powering up each workstation individually.
:* Workstations powered-up in one second intervals to balance the electrical load on church's circuits.
:* Allows teacher/volunteer to power-on and power-off all workstations by one power outlet switch, thus allowing monitors to be powered up (i.e. don't have to power-on or power-off workstation monitors).
Here is the bash shell script for powering the workstations: [[Power Up Workstation Script]]
Here is a sample of the text file containing MAC address information:
