I just rebooted my Linux systems last week the first time in about 6
months. The reason, because the windows servers on our network have
been changed so many times that they were finally starting to affect
Samba on the Linux server. I couldn?t just change the IP addresses
anymore and restart Samba, I actually had to reboot the system. I have
had the system up so long that I got a message like Lee?s but I try to
reboot at least once a year just so the heads don?t weld themselves to
the disk surface if I do have to bring them down for some reason. I
don?t think we have ever had a windows server stay up more than a week
so I think you are either lucky or you very seldom install a patch on
your server.
The standard with Windows is "one server app per server". Then they're
very stable.
But try running SQL-Server, Exchange, file serving, UV, Domain Services
etc on one box, and it'll be up and down like you-know-what...
