Does anything get logged in either the wildfire or pyaimt logs when
this happens? Roughly how many users are using the transport? Are
there any other transports on the same server?

You could write a script that does a disco attempt on the transport
every minute, and restarts it if it's dead.

Are there any other transports on the same server? Unfortunately we don't have any logs right now because this hasn't happened in a while and we didn't document how to reproduce it. Oops. Only about half a dozen to a dozen people use the AIM transport, and this is the only transport on the server. At one point we believed it had something to do with vcards, but, like I said, we're unable to duplicate it now. You could write a script that does a disco attempt on the transport every minute, and restarts it if it's dead. I'm sorry, but what is a "disco attempt?" -- Jesse Farmer <farmerje@xxxxxxxxxxxx> University of Chicago - NSIT Network Services AIM: farmerje Jabber: farmerje@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Phone: (773)363-1058
