I curse the chips of RodEllery's PC so that I may have the power to swoop in on 2nd :hiding:

damn it, just had a power cut  :banghead:

thought I'd lost me linux machine, it took about 10min to check memory.

Yes the Linux has crashed move over Linux, Super XP is here to save the day

Hey Temujin,

JUst found 2 Solaris boxes  that've been running for ages. Know how I can tell how long they've been running? Top doesn't work. Must see if any uptime clients available.

Also found a AIX 4 box, same question.

Our Linux mail server  unfortunately clogs fairly easily. (some connections don't get closed properly) so that is set to reboot nightly.


Also got a couple of HP-UX boxes situate in California and a NCR_UX box. must investigate further.

only used solaris on a test machine we had years ago, its unix ish aint it?
never seen AIX but isn't that unix ish too ???
would've thought uptime was on both
if they are unix ish, you could try ps -ef | grep init, although thats likely to just give you a month or maybe (if your very lucky a year) rather than a definate uptime figure.

I'm warning you though, 2 can play at that game mate  :D
definately got some linux boxes that have been running over a year, maybe longer
and then there's the DEC Alphas
and the Sage boxes
 :D

OK we'll call it quits on the Unix boxes and just use our main machines. Anyway Have to install SSH server on them soon, plus CVS version control. Will probaly have to reboot anyway,  

damn it, just had a power cut

that flippin power cut also took out 8 PCs at work.
none of em started up when the power came back so had to wait till I got in this morning.
Some 8-9,000 credits lost

I have stopped with this I don't get anything out of it

Someone else needs to join as well with an XP machine, manning the defenses here on me tod  

I could join with my WinXP machine but I doubt it would every be up for more than 1 day.
