It finally happened

Fett101:
After 43 days of operation, my Win 98 server went BSOD. Actually though... It's still running, but won't connect to the net... Not a very useful  server that way though.

I think I'll put XP on it and see how long that goes.

slave:
Save money; make it a Linux server.

dbl221:
I hate to tell you but win98 has a known memory leak...which by the way Micr$haft did not fix in ME.  Frankly I am shocked you made it run that long.

rtgwbmsr:
Yep. The 43 or 47 (can't remember) days of uptime bug. That just shows you that Windows REALLY sucks, and can't stay up for more than 1.5 months.

EDIT: Ahh, there it is. Win98 crashes 49.7 days (if you make it that far):
This site has a description and patch (if you don't have M$ blocked)

Doctor V:
If you're gonna put up a new server, at least throw Mandrake or somthing on there.  No sense in throwing away money on WP.
