Mop remote console requestor
Usage
moprc {[options]
<nodename> | <MAC
Address>}
Overview
moprc allows a system administrator to connect to MOP console devices (usually terminal servers) and log into them to issue commands remotely. It is the equivalent of "NCP CONNECT NODE" or "SET HOST/MOP" on VMS.
The node maybe specified as a MAC address in Unix format (ie as 6 pairs of hex digits separated by colons) or as a name that appears in /etc/ethers.
You will need to be root or have privileges to use moprc.

Trigger the node. This normally reboots the server so use this with care!
