Hello Applescripters,
At my office, we have a server running Filemaker. For some reason the
Filemaker Server application is prone to crashing (actually it doesn't
crash, but it will stay open and stop sharing databases - is "hang" the
proper word?). When this happens, we have to restart the machine to get
the FM Server to work again.
Quite often the server will crash/hang/stop working when there is
nobody at the office to physically restart the machine and remote
workers need access to the FM databases.
My thinking is that a remote restart should be something that I could
accomplish via applescript (as opposed to shelling out money for Remote
Desktop or Timbuktu).
The real question is how to trigger it remotely. I was thinking of
making a Folder Action (when file is dropped into the folder, the
computer restarts), but that just seems like an ugly way to do it.
Any suggestions?
Oh yeah, and here's the kicker: the server is running OS 8.6...
Thanks,
Mark
