Of course... we just have to move it to -chat Here's a box that I'll call FreeBSD, it's an Ipsilon router (now Nokia). It's essentially FreeBSD 2.1.7 with mods to the net stuff similar to ALTQ plus OSPF and other routing goodies - with a nice web frontend for configuring it all: ipsilon# uptime 7:22AM up 747 days, 21:27, 2 users, load averages: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 ipsilon# uname -a IPSO ipsilon.inch.com 2.1 IPSO 2.1 #1: Thu Jan 8 15:00:54 PST 1998 jre@tower.ipsilon.com:/net/servo/home/jre/2.1/src/sys/compile/IPSROUTER I'm damn impressed with the stability we're at now. Even my workstation running X, lots of Netscape windows, flash plugin, you name it: root@ass[/usr/ports/net/mrtg]# uptime 2:08PM up 113 days, 22:23, 1 user, load averages: 1.07, 1.03, 1.01 root@ass[/usr/ports/net/mrtg]# uname -a FreeBSD ass.inch.com 3.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE #0: Tue Jan 25 13:53:27 EST 2000 spork@ass.inch.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/SUPER-2 And my reboot was to add a drive and go up to 3.4-RELEASE. What a goddamned fantastic OS this is. Kudos to all! Charles > search.sparks.net was a 2.2.7 system which was up for 469 days before a > disk died due to overheating caused by the PS fan seizing up.
