So, im just gonna say it.no idea how to use CC . i really need something that can remotely trigger redstone and a program, password protected, with a simple gui. I need it for my IC2 reactor and a missile silo.
also, how do you trigger a program on a different computer over a wired network?
also is there a way to make a MFSU as a peripheral in 1.12.2? and if so, is there a way to display it on a monitor?

Hi! I'm going to be honest. i know nothing.
Heres what im trying to make:
A system that can remotely activate programs on computers either by rednet or by wired network.
A raid setup with 8 drives.(is it even possible?)
A password protected redstone switch that activates the back with a basic GUI/CUI (for turning on a reactor)
How do i do this?
Examples?
The full thing if its small enough?
These are the most advanced thing i know for reference:
Wired modems.
Rebooting via programs.

There is a mod called Plethora Peripherals that adds support for connecting alot of different blocks to a computer. If you can wrap a mfsu as peripheral the amount of EU stored should be accessable.

Lets say you have a wireless network, and modems are on top of both computers.
--COMPUTER 1
rednet.open("top")
rednet.broadcast("test")
rednet.open("top")
sender, msg, distance = rednet.receive()
if msg == "test' then
os.run({},"/rom/programs/shell")
end
Very basic example.

You get a table becauce when you wrap a peripheral you get a table with all feature available for that peripheral.
The following code worked for other blocks that I monitored with plethora, not tested with IC2.
local periph = peripheral.wrap("back") --wrap your MFSU and store it in a variable, change "back" to match your setup
local max = periph.getMetadata().energy.capacity
local now = periph.getMetadata().energy.stored
print(now .. "/" .. max)
