Is there a way to send a keystroke to a client (or something else) to wake it up (turn monitor on)?

I just noticed that I lost this functionality by not running the PH DCC.

hhhhmmmm....

Nothing directly. But I will add a 'WAKE_UP' to the socket server in the morning.

You could...
add this to the PH_GV_CHANGE VBS function and use PH to change a global var.

Dim objShell
set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
objShell.SendKeys "d"

it will send a key stroke

Thanks!

OR....

I forget. You can create your own Socket server commands.

Code: Select all

'=================================================================
Function REMOTE_CMD(sCMD, sParam)
    '--- cmds sent by remote - PPC
    'msgbox "REMOTE_CMD()"
   if ucase(sCmd) = "WAKE_UP" then
      Dim objShell
      set objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
      objShell.SendKeys "d"
   end if
End Function

then just send a WAKE_UP with the socket server

But the next version now has a EH_WAKE_UP command
