Re: OT: Server Uptime, was Any Red hat heads here?

Not bad uptime.

I just couldnt trust my HA to a windoze machine myself.... But this is a
good example of if it works dont try to break it.... well done.

I find that if I have a windows machine and start really whacking it around
it kinda bails out and runs to momma requesting a reboot. I don't have the
feeling of uncertainty/insecurirty with any of linux boxes I work on right
down to an old P133.

running
Windows 2000 and has an uptime of 98 days so far. This is running Homeseer,
XGuard (Trust 4 input video capture), my own weather station software,
Equinox for phone logging, WinAMP and shoutcast etc, so not exactly lightly
loaded I would say. Load sits about 50-70% with the all systems up on a
PIII
500Mhz machine.
