Still doesn't make it over the hour mark without restarts. 

The network is still alive while it's fighting to find a pool because I can still hit the admin page and watch it switching back and forth between the two server configs... but no communication is coming from the miners as I'm watching both the mining_proxy and BFGminer and neither is seeing any traffic during that 2-1/2 min span before it's restarts. 

Are there any other pages on the admin side of things for more information? 

The last thing I will have to try is a straight getwork server from the blade.
