is my server's uptime... sleeping in the same room i can't let it on all night, besides nobody but me accessing the machine, so not really useful if i'm sleeping

10:55:59 up 18 days

This as the result of a printing-problem.

Maximum would be somwhere around 7-9 months, as I reinstall the machine when a new version of Fedora comes out (mostly +1 month after release, when I worked with it for some time on my own computer).

had my HP Apollo workstation up for almost a year then the monitor went out an it has not been on since. That was a year ago.

Although I didn't have the same experience, but that was one of the reasons I got a KVM-switch and now my server and my own workstation are on the same keyboard/monitor/mouse. And I can tell you... that's working so easy

We have a box at work that's been up more than 340 days. We'll take it down soon to upgrade from RH 9.0 to FC3.

sadly enough my windows server at home has had the best uptime of all my pc's...
*Hides behind server rack to avoid being hit by flames
Last reboot 32 days ago. My record has been 123 days, before it needed a reboot.
But that is only because my *nix server is still being setup and my nix desktop has a dodgy psu.

But this shows some stability, albeit on bsd, those top servers have been running almost 5 years without a rebooot(one wonders how well their hardware is doing after three years)

Don't be to sad about it. Just disconnect and fire up your Linux server and we'll talk about it next year

This is my longest uptime so far. It's a Mandriva 10.0 box. Its last outage was a power failure. I'll have to restart it to upgrade to Mandriva 10.1 and do some maintenance to the watercooling system at the same time.

I finally had to shut it down last week to top up the coolant. And believe me, I was racking my brain to try and think of ways to top it up without shutting it down. hehehe

those results are flawed, here is the explanation;

Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, and some versions of FreeBSD only record up to 497 days of uptime, after which their uptime counters are reset to zero and start again. So all web sites based on machines running Linux, Solaris, HP-UX and in some cases FreeBSD "appear" to reboot every 497 days even if they run for years.

the site does explain that in the faq's, but since they record windows aswell then the results can't be anything more than skewed as i know from experience that people will just come along and take the results at face value
