2 LAN's connected via Ipsec VPN.
Different subnets (of course).
Any ideas how I can broadcast this packet across the VPN tunnel ?
Code:
Net::Wake::by_udp('192.168.1.255','00:10:DC:xx:xx:xx');
Is there a better way to do this, because always TIMTOWTDI.
TIA's

That looks like the way to do it, assuming the other subnet is 192.168.1.0 and the x's in the MAC address are actual numbers . If it's not working then perhaps there's something with your VPN that's inhibiting the broadcast. I'd add to your post in the VPN forum with more information regarding VPN devices used and perhaps someone there will be of more assistance.
