[xmlblaster] GPRS / Different IP

["Matthew Monson" <matthew.monson at gmail.com>]

Hello,

I'm using xmlBlaster for a GPRS receipting solution
which provides the end user with the ability to issue
prepaid electricity tokens to a consumer. 
The message server is running at the local municipality
and so is the server providing the token numbers.

My problem is that every now and again the GPRS connection 
drops and the client needs to redial the GSM modem and
establish a connection back to VodacomISP, whereby getting
a brand new IP address. Unfortunately the client cannot
reconnect to the message server unless I exit the application
and go back in, basically killing the old connection and
creating a new one. The connection does change ALIVE -> POLLING,
but can never connect to the server after redial and there's 
nothing happening in the log file on the server.

I'm assuming its the IP address because the software works
perfectly on a LAN?

This solution is ptp so I managed to kind of
get a workaround by just connecting using a different
session name eg. machine2/2, and setting the old sessions
to expire after 10min, but I'm sure there must be a better way.

I'm using the RAW SOCKET and SSL protocols and passing the message
server the same client session name everytime, my question is,
what in your opinion should the settings be firstly
on the message server and secondly on the client to 
enable a client with a different IP address to reconnect
to an existing session. 

A very simple example of the xmlBlaster.properties and
the client arguments would be appreciated as I'm still quite 
new to xmlBlaster and java.

Thanks,

Matthew
