I can make everything a lot easier for myself. As I understood it
leafnode had to be accessed locally and you need to do stuff to make
it available on your local network. That seems not to be the case. I
just tried to connect from my server to leafnode on my PC and it
worked like a charm. So I expect that the other-way around should work
also. :-)

The server is always online, so I do not have to care about boot,
hibernate, waking up and shutdown. I only need a way to instruct
leafnode on the server to fetch again from the PC. But that should not
be a big problem I suppose. So lets install it again.

But if there is a way to automatically send the queued messages on
shutdown and hibernate, I still would like to know how. Then I could
make it work for people without a server also.
