Not a dumb question. I would like to know how I *really* turn off all kind of sleeping functions. I have a G5 desktop in another room, that is used as a node. Every visible parameter which deals with energy saving is off. The person on that machine just switches off the monitor after work. And a couple of hours later I get the message "Logic has lost connection to the node". I haven't lost the connection to anything and there is no traffic on the LAN besides broadcast messages. Same if I use an iMac G5 as node, but behavior is slightly different: that one goes out of Logic's view every second day or so. Are Macs known to take a nap when they think the master is gone? ___ Peter Ostry
