Vista - FTP awakes sleeping computer?

A computer has Windows Vista Home Premium and File Zilla Server installed,
and is set to sleep. Does it automatically wake up, when an FTP client tries
to log on?
Thanks in advance, Gerhard

No, but you could get it to, with bit of fiddling about, and the person
accessing it would have to be told to do it. You'd also have to make a
Scheduled Task to shut it down again afterwards if you are aiming to save
electricity.

You need to look into WoL and Magic Packets, if you want to do this.

I have a page a personal website from which I can send magic packets to
particular computers on my LAN, so I can connect to them through Remote
Desktop after VPN into my LAN. I got the code from here:

event wakes it up. So, no if some application is trying to make contact with
the computer via FTP, it's not going to wake it up.
