I've got this thing working on my Ubuntu machine to wake up an old laptop over LAN. Thanks for writing this tool, it's handy.
I saw the Makefile in the repo, but it listed WakeOnLan.c as a dependency instead of WakeOnLAN.c (capital LAN), so I fixed that, and while I was there I used the special make variables $@ and $< to avoid restating the target and its dependency.
Then when I compiled the code, GCC warned that inet_addr was implicitly defined, so I included the header file from OpenGroup's documentation on inet_addr. You had already included it for Darwin.
I also added a .gitignore file to exclude the built binary.
