The whole idea is to let the server be self contained. Hence I would like it to go into hibernate except when I start one of the client machines. I would like it to be possible to keep the server alive without having to remotely log into the MP server PC, or having to disable the hibernate on the server PC. And I would like it to work without having to startup the MP client.

It must be possible to start a small app on the client pc (without running the MP client) which will keep the server PC alive and prevent it from hibernating.

I would like to be able to use this PC (MP server PC) for other usage than MP server.

I would like:
1. Server PC should wake on lan. (This is allready working.)
2. Server PC should stay out of hibernating as long as my client PC is running. This should be achieved without MP client running either. (This is not working yet)

What signal is sent from MP client to keep MP server alive? What is the mechanism to prevent the server from hibernating when a MP client is using the TV service? I want to do the same thing but from a small app. running on my client PC.

Best regards Light
