A question with huge potential for a bragging contest. Nevertheless...a little while back, a friend who still works for a company I left in early 1999 informed me that they had to reboot a box I had built to do DNS and email for a rack of servers...after being up almost 500 days. There's absolutely no reason to reboot a server unless it's obvious getting hit hard (lots of swapping, memory usage seems to climb, long list of zombie processes, etc). Otherwise, keep it up, and enjoy. - John Turner At 01:25 PM 8/4/2000 -0700, Fabio Miranda wrote: >HI, I would like to know how sysadmin deal with >servers that should be up everytime.
