I am new to NWNX so a little help would be appreciated.

The NWNX does reboot the server when it goes down - however I have noticed sometimes it reboots with no name for the server. The server name is in the nwnplayer.ini correctly. This happens about 1/3 of the time.

My guess it is trying to place it online before the nwnplayer.ini is fully loaded and once you start putting it online it freezes goes gray for like 5 or 6 seconds and fails to load the server name.

I have also tried testing the gamespy watchdog - and it does not seem to be working. We lost DSl connection for an hour the other day and it didn't reboot trying to put the server back online.

I did a little more testing.
The server name gets placed on a restart of the server but I have my PC to auto reboot at 3 AM - when this happens it doesn't put the server name into gamespy.

FYI

Microsoft had a problem with it task scheduler and the auto reboot wasn't working properly. I got a hotfix for it from Microsoft.

I now have a pc reboot working on the task scheduler - I timed my reboot at 3 minutes. I Set NWNX to start 5 minutes after reboot. In the NWNX.ini I have a 60 second delay to launch the module.

This configuration seems to be working - I tested it 12 times by manaully changing the reboot schedule. Now lets see if it works in Real life for a week.
