Hey Van, I would have her go through the restraining order process, just so there is a record of his actions.
If he's calling repeatedly at 2 am, that's harrassment/stalking and should be dealt with accordingly. Unfortunately this guy is a loser, and if he's still fixated on her AFTER 2 1/2 years, then he has become obsessed with her, and he just may do something rash to justify his twisted emotions.
Here's my personal experience from years ago:
I have a cousin that stalked his first girlfriend after the split (he was a violent drunk) and it took years for him to get the message. She had a number of friends who would "escort" her home because she knew he would be waiting for her near her home. He wanted to talk to her, and claimed he still loved her, but it always ended with him starting to turn violent. (I witnessed one such event and interjected my fist into his stomach to stop it.)
I would keep in touch with your daughter and find out if he is still "harrassing" her over the phone, and try and keep tabs on the guy so that should he attempt anything outrageous you can nip it in the bud.
Good luck!

Now that daughter number II's boyfriend is on Nantucket I keep repeating the Olde Cape Cod Father's maxim:

"If you can dance with the captain never dance with the mate!"

Why even try.........

That kind of sound's funny coming from a guy.
