This is *nix. My systems have been up for MANY months without any need for reboot. I have also heard of people with systems up for years. The only need I have had to reboot is only to test my UPS, or move the server. If it is windows, it will die anyway, so a preemptive reboot or all out replacement would be a good idea :) -- Rick Bragg Green Mountain Network http://www.gmnet.net -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
