Agreed! This is what I have done locally also - enter a machine on the server side, and ping it at some interval.
FYI, this doesn't have to be only the server itself. I use a different machine, to make sure my routes get set up properly also. Thanks, ...

If no ping reply then restart the service. Very simple. Perhaps this could be built into the code as an option?
