    Damn, just replaced the network switch a few days ago and unplugged the worng thing . I can remember that my smoothwall (400MHz Celeron) was up for about 63 days. I say it's pretty damn good considering it handles about 300MB of data going through it each day and it only has about 64MB of RAM...

    I'm almost ashamed of posting this:
    Code:
    $ ruptime
    erica       down      4:08
    pc13          up      3:29,     1 user,   load 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
    pc16          up  13+14:35,     0 users,  load 0.08, 0.07, 0.05
    pc17          up   8+08:10,     0 users,  load 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
    pc5           up  10+11:01,     0 users,  load 0.00, 0.01, 0.00
    pc7           up   1+11:43,     2 users,  load 0.32, 0.20, 0.17
    pc7 is my computer. pc5, pc16 and pc17 are my servers. The others are my sisters' computers.

    I feel I have to make excuses for this.
    I had to reboot my system yesterday because of a stupid mistake at the end of one of the cooler things I've done. I had just patched glibc, manually and binary using dd to replace the operand to some instructions after having found and fixed a bug in getaddrinfo(3) which sorted IPv6 addresses erroneously (and yes, I reported it). Then, when I was to install the patched version, I ran "cp libc-2.3.4.so.new libc-2.3.4.so" without first removing the old libc file, which truncated the old glibc to zero bytes and caused every single process on the system to crash. Doh! I had to boot a LiveCD to fix it. I usually get around 3 weeks on this computer before I make some change in the kernel and have to restart it... it's really a testbed computer.
    By the way, the FC3-test3 LiveCD kernel hangs when trying to write to a ReiserFS filesystem. I spent an hour at that, so don't fall for the same thing.

    As for the servers, it's frigging mad to have so little uptime on them. I used to have over 200 days on each of them. Then a hard drive failed (temporarily... phew) in the NFS server (pc5), I accidently unplugged the power cord to pc16, and the kernel (a FC2 stock 2.6.8 ) failed in the router (pc17), which was really strange. It was overflowing in some routing table cache and refused to flush it, so I had to reboot it. I'm replacing it with a vanilla kernel right now. I'm also planning to replace the system on them with Gentoo in a near future, so I guess I'lll be losing all the uptime on them. Not that it's much of a loss right now... :-/

    We've had a few brown-outs over here, but the power supplies in the servers have been good enough to overcome them. I've just bought myself a used UPS just to be on the safe side, though.

    my laptop sucks so much, that if i happen to jiggle it the wrong way, the power supply goes out, so in recent weeks my max uptimes have been ~20 hours :/

    lol

    I can't keep my box on all the time as it's right next to my bed and would keep me awake.

    I remember a server at the software company I worked at during my placement year of my degree which was up for 380 days which I thought was pretty impressive!
