Anyone know
of any systems that have been up longer?
Take a look here: http://en.uptime-project.net/page.php?page=toplist
Admittedly, I am a newbie when it comes to System Administration. But
how do all of you with crazy up times keep your system's patched? It
seems like every other patch requires a restart!

We've got a few boxes like this still in production service, generating
billing information:
$ uptime
8:59pm up 1268 day(s), 7:34, 1 user, load average: 0.14, 0.19, 0.22
$ uname -a
SunOS dce1.man1 5.8 Generic_108528-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60
It's actually a DC powered Netra T-1120.
How do we keep from having to patch them?
$ pkginfo -i | wc -l
102
It's listening on only 2 ports (ssh and our monitoring tool)
I'm pretty sure we still have at least one 2.6 box running w/ ~1700 days
uptime. With 2.6 we only installed around 60 packages.
