The only last step is to make sure that if you’re using a router, you open up a “hole” so that you can connect to your Shutter server through the router. To do this, just go to your router administration control panel (usually 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1, depending on your router’s brand) and configure port forwarding as shown here i can’t understand this point.

I kind of used to make fun of it for not being useful... I guess I can't anymore. I'm deeply impressed. I didn’t know about any of these options, but twitter?!

I see message from scotty above, not sure if it will work - i know i could power down, but will re-applying power cause it to restart? I'll have to see... wpkeeper,

I think for many of the end-users who aren't quite as technically savvy to be able to set up SSH as you've described, the port forwarding with an ID/Password setup is a useful option. Certainly not the most secure - but some people are willing to trade security for ease-of-use. Thanks for the advice Matt – and your advice is certainly useful.

You just need to think a bit outside the box. I know you're a Linux type, so you're used to having fewer available choices, but still... :) Read a few of the user comments and you’ll see other reasons why people need to remotely reboot.

It had it's own POTS line and I could call it, enter a touchtone code, and it would power the switch off / wait 20 seconds / power it back on. Just like hitting the power switch. Im sure you could do a google search and find one still. It solved my late night search for someone to go in and do it manually....
