Wake on LAN configuration

Hi everybody,

I'm using slitaz 4.0 on an old pc, everything is ok but I can't power on the pc from another pc in the same lan.

I enabled the wake-on-lan option in the BIOS power manager section. What I should do next?

hardware:

ethernet card ---> realtek rtl8139c

motherboard ---> intel FW82443lx.

I also tried the ethernet card on a different pc in the same lan (running windows 7) and the wake on lan works well (i think that this means that the hardware is ok)

Thanks for help!

tazpkg get-install wol

i don't use it now so i can't help you with configuration, search for wol linux command in google
