Hmmm, this is interesting. Do you Linux gurus care to explain?

Oh, speaking of that web server that I mentioned having 490 days of uptime before the extended power outage at the NOC it is housed in is back up to 223 days. So if it were not for the power outage it would have 713 days of uptime right now. And this is a *heavily* utilized machine. It never would have shown 713 days though because it would have wrapped back to 0 at just under 500 days. So there are quite probably Linux servers with uptimes in the range of the top 50 but would never show up. You'll need a 2.5 or higher kernel so the uptime will not wrap. I forget what the new limit is. Something like 100,000 years or more if I remember right. Good luck trying to get PC garbage to run that long, but maybe on an UltraSparc.

A couple of other things I noticed about this Windows machine. It's only been charted for the last two months so who knows what fiddling has been done on it. I suspect it only really has two months of uptime and if it has been fiddled with then it could have been rebooted countless times within that two month period and not show it in the graph. Also, regarding these BSD boxes that are at the top of the list. It's interesting the number of days the #1 system when the graph starts. You tell me that's not suspicious:

I smell a Debian devil.
At least it's been graphing for over 2 years unlike the Windows box...

Hehe, OSX has 3 mentions all higher than the Win2000 server. But then again OSX can be considered BSD as well :D

Thats right. As I said, the high uptime servers are dominated by BSD. ;P
voidmain:
Heh heh, how long as OSX been out? I wonder if there was any fiddling with this one:
