[ale] OS X and Linux WakeOnLan

[Robert Karaffa]

hi folks,
	I'm using WakeOnLan v0.89 on my MacBookPro to wakeup a couple of  
Linux boxes.  However, WakeOnLan doesn't issue sleep or shutdown  
commands to Linux boxen;  only Mac OS X.

I'm looking for a solution to issue a shutdown command from OS X to a  
Linux box.  I'm not sure if a "do shell script" Applescript is the  
right approach, using ssh as the "issuer" of the shutdown command  
(i.e., logging-in to the Linux box via ssh, and issuing "shutdown -h  
now", all done in an AppleScript.

If anyone has any comments or suggestions, please toss them my way.

-Thanks!!

-Bob K.
