My Linux router has been online for months now.

Up, as in not awake? 80 hours, once. but sleep deprivation is not fun. I like getting my daily 10 hours.

Think more geeky.

jerrek, i had a hardware router online for over a year :eek: with some drops, but no resets, but thats hardware, not linux :(

what irc channel/server is that?

uptime?

okay, maybe i should have explained a little better, uptime is how long your computer has been on, its kind of a geeky thing

ummmm 3 months, 99% of the time i was on the screen saver :D


it was so fucked up at the end i could not shut it off so i simply had to pull the plug :bugeye:

Mine was up for 60 days (after first boot*) then i accidentaly hit the reset button :(


*note: first boot means 1st boot after building new world

record for me: only 2 days

i guess this is a question for my fellow geeks..
im thinking about purchasing two UPSs, one for each machine, and i was wondering, because i dont want downtime, if i could plug the ups, via a hacked cord, into my strip, and then unplug it, and reposition it into my second ups, then just have some downtime on the other machine? Do you thinkt he extra voltage may reek some havoc and kill a machine, or because of some kind of nature about all that electricity junk, there would be no ill effects?

Currently?

This computer, running WinXP, has been up for six or seven hours, I had to reboot earlier since I had a harddisk failure. Pain in the ass, I lost a buttload of data.

My OpenBSD router has been up for 4 days 23 hours and 19 minutes. I shut it down a few nights ago since I needed the silence, all my computers are in my bedroom.

I'm not sure what my record uptime is, but it's somewhere in the region of two months.

I shut my machine down every night usually. Since I don't run a server it doesn't matter.

As far as I know, thats bad for the power supply as well as the other components. Most components do better being on 24/7 than on and off.

Most of the power is taken by the monitor. A computer with the monitor off takes very little power. PLUS I live in America and not california...we have no power problems and power is cheap :)

On first thing in the morning (0800) off at night (0200)
I can't sleep with a bee in my room :)

Haha, I don't have a bee in my room...wsh i did. I have a small hurricane :)

I have 2 desktops running, 1 workstate and 1 server. 2 laptops running, one is recently new and thus quiet, the other is a Pentium 75 and quite loud. I also didn't have the money last year for a good switch so i bought a used 16 port one from a police station...works great, BUT LOUDEST SUCKER EVER!!! So when the power goes out i get woken from the silence...its deafening

PS - Nevermind the rest of my apartment thats just my room

(Stats from my hired BSD server that serves a site or two)

Uptime 0 :(

Power outage crashed my bsd, big crash lost /usr has to run fsck

Sheesh

If you want uptime I can give you uptime, from one of my servers at work,

Last boot time : 3-OCT-2001 11:54:13.80

System uptime : 575 days 23 hours 35 minutes

At least one server has an uptime in excess of 600 days.

do you realize that I can afford a professional to do that for me?

Before a kernel panic an hour ago my router had been up for 21 days, I'll need to figure out what's causing these crashes one of these days.

As for how long my windows box has been chugging along, I have no Idea.

I would guess particular types of attack would cause your router to go do.

Neh, that was the first thing I checked. It's probably something simple yet seemingly irrelevant that will take me forever to track down.
