Server Missing No More
The University of North Carolina recently had trouble locating a Net-Ware 
server at one of its academic departments. 

The school's IT staffers followed cables until hitting on one they thought 
would lead to the elusive server. Sure enough, say UNC officials, they found 
it, still operating, alone in a small enclosure. The officials say it had 
been mistakenly walled in by drywall built by maintenance workers. 

Curious IT workers dug into records and it appears the server had been in 
solitary for at least three years
