[AG-TECH] AG bridge woes

[Jason Bell]

G'day Jeremy

I honestly cannot explain why I need to do "regular" restarts, I just
find that if I do, the bridge is more stable and more reliable.

For us, it is better that every time a person wants to connect to the
bridge, that the bridge is up and running.

Sorry I cannot be anymore helpful!

Thanks,
Jason.

Thanks Jason, but is that really acceptable? While I don't have a
problem with restarting the bridge, but boss deems this unacceptable
and will probably drop our bridge service. If you can give me some
points I can show him, like why it's necessary to restart each day,
why it drops connections to the peer registry, etc... I would be
greatly appreciated.
