HTTP-GET to Wakeup and Shutdown Linux Box

Two flows really, one uses HTTP-GET as an input and the issues a Wake-On-LAN (WOL), after a lookup of MAC address for the server name passed from the HTTP-GET.

The second uses SSH with shared keys to allow passwordless logon to a server to shut it down.

Instructions as to how to make a JavaScript http-get, also how to configure a Linux box for paswordless login included.
