Remote wakeonlan fix for TeamViewer using net rpc

references: [https://www.hackingarticles.in/active-directory-enumeration-net-rpc/]

1. Wake the hardware (from Mac)

Check local ARP cache for MAC if needed (ping hostname to get IP), then:

arp -a
brew install wakeonlan
wakeonlan <mac address>
ping <IP address>

2. Connect to a linux jump box & install tool if missing. (Ubuntu box)

ssh user@<IP address>
sudo apt install samba-common-bin -y

3. Check / start service (from jump box)

net rpc service start TeamViewer -I <IP address> -U <username> -W <domain name>

to stop service:

net rpc service stop TeamViewer -I <IP address> -U <username> -W <domain name>

4. Force reboot (if service is “Stop Pending” or frozen)

net rpc shutdown -r -f -I <IP address> -U <username> -W <domain name>

5. Confirm recovery

ping <IP address>

6. Troubleshooting

If you see: (WERR_SERVICE_ALREADY_RUNNING), stop the service with Step 3 “stop” command. If you’re stuck reboot the whole machine with Step 4 forced reboot.
