Welcome to my homepage!

My name is Dusan Vuckovic, and I'm from Belgrade, Serbia, where I live and work. This site is an attempt to showcase my work so far, mainly in DTP/web field. Since this is the only place on the web where I publish things, I will certainly use this site for some work unrelated things also (photos, personal projects, etc).

I have many interests, but main are: web design & web technologies, desktop publishing (DTP), digital photography, astronomy, 3D modeling & rendering, video... Currently, my professional career is in DTP.

If you have a work proposal or a project on which we can cooperate, feel free to contact me using the Email link in footer below.

Problems with Wake on Wireless LAN

One of the great little things about computers is surely Wake On Lan feature on most network cards.

I found myself depending on this nifty little thing lately, since I want to be able to access files remotely, but I don't want to have a computer running all the time (it's not very green, is it?) or be there physically to turn it on (beats the purpose, I guess).
