One of the local newspaper's has a Win2K server set up for file sharing. It too is a K6 400, but I think it has 192MB of RAM. Its uptime was 483 days the last I got to check it. A week or week and a half later, a day long power outage wiped out that record :(( At least now I can install patches and not feel guilty about ruining a perfectly good uptime :) James "I despise the city and much prefer being where a traffic jam means a line-up at McDonald's" Me when telling a friend why I wouldn't want to live with him

I used to be a Novell CNE and it wasn't unsual to see Novell servers that had been up for 3 years or more. ------------

They had a *very* well protected kernel in memory and you could just about crash anything on it without bringing down the server. We used to joke that you could take an axe to a netware server and it would keep on running. They also have a very ahead of it's time system for backup redundant servers that was super fault tolerant. We had one client out in the country who was a big time logging contractor and up time was so important to them they had a fault tolerant Netware server inside a steel shipping container literally buried in the ground behind the office with backup generators etc etc. It was our only token ring network and it was always interesting working on it. Now there's probably hardly anyone using Novell anymore (they decided to really stop supporting smaller clients by changing pricing and licensing policies and so we went to recommending NT), but it was the best there was for small to large business for nearly a decade. ------------

But it was more usual to see them in the trash after having to reboot them every few days. Then again, our sysadmin was an idiot. Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

Novell servers? Your sysadmin must have been an idiot, they were bulletproof (at least versions 2-4 were, after that I quit working on them). ------------
John Cardinal wrote: Your sysadmin must have been an idiot :) Absolutely. Novell is almost indestructible. John Cardinal wrote: at least versions 2-4 were, after that I quit working on them I stopped with version 5, and that was just as reliable. It may have been more so, except that our v4 server never failed :)
