Sorry all - gave the wrong impression.

Have no problems with intermittent breaks provided they aren't frequent (ie every few
minutes) and therefore interrupt sessions (particularly remote admin).

What I find interesting is the repeated occurrence of 417.x minute connections - most of
the disconnect messages in the logs show this time. The site is on JetStart and has been
up about 3 weeks.

It may be a random artifact, but its enough to start me watching a bit more to see if
anything makes sense.
