This is beta release 20120427.163654 of the SrvrPowerCtrl plugin.
It can be installed via the Extension Downloader. Just add:
..to the SBS Settings->Plugins list of 'Additional Repositories'. If you'd rather install manually, you may directly download the zipfile from here: http://srvrpowerctrl.googlecode.com/...rCtrl_beta.zip
Changes since the last update:
Features include:
This plugin has been tested with Squeezebox Server 7.6.2 and Logitech Media Server 7.8 running on Ubuntu 11.10 and Fedora 16 and with Squeezebox Server 7.6.0 on OSX 10.6.6 and Windows 7. It ought to work (perhaps with some fiddling) on other linux distros as well. Setup scripts for OSX, and Debian and Redhat derived distros are included in the download. See the plugin's settings page for a link to detailed setup instructions.
Downloads:
SrvrPowerCtrl can be installed using Squeezebox Server's Plugin Downloader. Copy this link: http://srvrpowerctrl.googlecode.com/svn/beta.xml and paste it into the list of 'Additional Repositories' on the SBS Settings->Plugins page.
Other associated utilities are all available at the project page: http://code.google.com/p/srvrpowerctrl/downloads/list
Requirements:
I've slacked off on active development of these plugins. Anyone is free to fork these projects with my blessing. (Not that you need my blessing, all the code is GPL.) See: http://code.google.com/p/srvrpowerctrl/source/checkout for instructions for downloading the code via svn.
I'll continue to make the plugin available for a while yet via the beta repository. Please be forewarned that NO SUPPORT WHATSOEVER will be supplied to users of these plugins. Though this is the first post in a very, very long thread, I'll no longer be monitoring this. Sorry.
Thanks,
Gordon Harris

Changes since the last update:
- On Linux systems, SrvrPowerCtrl can now optionally schedule system wake-ups for root crontab events.
- Linux setup scripts now more flexible about LMS/SBS service account names (in anticipation of changes that should happen in LMS.)
- Support for block files in /run/lock for Fedora 15/16, Ubuntu 11.10, etc.
- Tested with LMS 7.8, svn 33939 and perl v5.12.4 on Ubuntu server 11.10.
- Tested with LMS 7.1.1, svn 33718 and perl v5.14.2 on Fedora 16.
Features include:
- Idle monitoring now includes network i/o, and on linux and OSX computers, disk and CPU load monitoring as well.
- Automatic 'push players on shutdown' feature can now push players to alternate servers in addition to mysqueezebox.com. E.g., push your players onto a SBTouch running 'tinysc'!
- Now allows an unlimited number of custom commands to be defined.
- Full support for the SBTouch and SBRadio.
- Shutdown/restart/suspend/hibernate your SqueezeBox Server computer via your SqueezeBox’s IR remote, a Squeezebox Controller, iPeng or via the SBS web interface.
