Question: After a connection to a card server is lost, I have to restart newcamd to reestablish it. This sux. Do something about it! Answer: No, we won't. YOU do something about it! There is camdcmd provided in the official newcamd.zip distribution, the wanon command will do exactly that, rebuild all the connections that are designated as "wan" in newcamd.conf (cardserv.cfg, cardspider.cfg). Start using it! Go make a plugin if calling it via telnet is too much to ask.
