All Linux boxes, all production, mission critical boxes. The top one
had 160 days uptime when a power problem in the data center caused a
reboot. Yes, that's 250days. The others have been rebooted by me for
my purposes, not because the machine needed it, I added hard drives,
flashed new BIOS into the boxes. I've never had to reboot one of these
boxes because of an error. There was a gentleman I know who had a
Linux 1.0.9 box at a remote location doing Shell, UUCP Mail, and
dialin with a 450 day uptime. Brittle isnt a word I'd use. (Although
looking at those lines, it's obvious I never set the system time to
anything realistic, it's 10:36AM)
This is probably not the best forum for the
Linux/BSD/Microsoft/Whatever OS Jihad. :)
