Server Status/Control - twynne - 01-08-2006
Hi,
I've been using TLB for several years now. I've been looking for some sort of desktop widget that would allow me to monitor the status of a couple of servers on my home network, but then it occurred to me TLB would be a great place for this.
Ideally I'd like an icon in TLB to indicate the status of a server (set in plugin options) - this could be based on a configurable ping - something like a green ('lit') LED if online or a red (or 'dim') LED if offline. From the context menu I'd like to be able to wake/restart/standby the remote machine or open a remote desktop session. Wake/restart/standby could be done natively or using a service running on the remote server like Poweroff.
Is this something that could be developed for TLB??
Many thanks,
Tom
