Talk:Uptime
From FreeBSDwiki
I have searched for whether FreeBSD has the 497 day issue - could one of you uber-gurus know? Doctor Modiford 11:06, 4 October 2007 (EDT)
no issue
I had an OpenVPN server running FreeBSD 4.5 with well over 1,000 days of uptime on it until I had to move it across town recently.
I wanted to cry when I shut it down. =) --Jimbo 12:09, 4 October 2007 (EDT)
Thanks for the confirmation
It seems most people refer to the Netcraft stats when they note the 497 day bug, so I have added that in as a reference.
I have visions of you with a car battery and crocodile (alligator??) clips trying to keep the system running while driving it across town in an all-action Hollywood blockbuster epic kind of way :-D
