It's : been up an running for 2 months with zero problems. I've had the same experience with Linux. We've got one here running 1.1.75 (mainly because it hasn't been taken down to upgrade) and it was just rebooted it March 8 '96 . Its last boot was on June 14, 1995, and I don't recall it ever crashing ... It's an NFS, http, lpd, imap and for a long time was a PPP server. It was basically set up to be a beast of burden, and it's taken it quite well. If you set things up right Linux won't fail you... --- Chander Ganesan Arizona State University C@asu.edu : Rob
