There was a thread on comp.unix.solaris with people reporting uptimes greater than 492 days. Some with three years uptime (1000 days). There was a bug in Solaris pre-2.6 that prevented the reporting of uptime greater then 248 days. I am unsure about Linux. There's a report of a VMS machine running for about 7 years: http://groups.google.com/groups?th=be68d05baa08c324seekm=asp586%243i0g%241%40node21.cwnet.roc.gblx.net#link3 (Sorry for line wrap.) -- David Magda dmagda at ee.ryerson.ca Because the innovator has for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions, and lukewarm defenders in those who may do well under the new. -- Niccolo Machiavelli, _The Prince_, Chapter VI To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: What is it that makes people rave about the longest uptime? To me, this is just a list of sites whose admins have neglected to perform the necessary upgrade-maintenances, seemingly for almost three years even. To me, this is just a list of potentially vulnerable sites. You can go into single user mode ('shutdown now'), and have all the services stop. Then update them when necessary and do a '^D' to go back into single user mode. This will not reset the uptime counter. You would be stuck using an old kernel- and user-land however. If there is only one open port to the outside world, and you make sure that program is secure then it should not be a problem. -- David Magda dmagda at ee.ryerson.ca Because the innovator has for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions, and lukewarm defenders in those who may do well under the new. -- Niccolo Machiavelli, _The Prince_, Chapter VI To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
