Hello (No point in sending this to -current!). I have a FreeBSD+drawbridge host which just runs and runs and has no problems. It has been up now for 444 days (2.2.6-RELEASE DRAWBRIDGE-3.0b2) and I am planning to upgrade it RSN! Just wondered if FreeBSD ever suffered the 'uptime' problems that the L-Word did/does (498 day uptime can cause panics in some Linux kernels). I am not interested in any *BSD vs. Linux flame-fests just want to know if I need to bring drawbridge up to date sooner rather than later. [not that a long uptime sticker on the box wouldn't be nice to wind-up the other lot] Cheers Neil -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr Neil J Long, Computing Services, University of Oxford 13 Banbury Road, Oxford, OX2 6NN, UK Tel:+44 1865 273232 Fax:+44 1865 273275 EMail: Neil.Long@computing-services.oxford.ac.uk PGP: EE AE D0 FF B3 D7 05 18 04 83 E7 B0 D0 4D 0B CA OxCERT: oxcert@ox.ac.uk PGP: 8BE5B0662D 716D1DAE84 1D933D53DE67 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
