I have to ask... What about patching? My boxes are stripped down but eventually need a patch and subsequent reboot. That said I do have one 4.6 box at 267 (firewalled, very protected network).

I've seen 650+ days on a FreeBSD 4.4-REL. Then someone was moving some UPS's around and managed to unplugg *both* powersupplies at the same time. Redundancy doesnt help if the admins are idiots.

I do know of a P90 running OpenBSD that is closing in on 900 days, but I guess that belongs on another mailinglist.

These boxes are just bridges without a IP address of their own. They are impossible to access other then via local console, so there is no need to patch them other then for functionality.

The boxes I admin that are reachable via ip rarely sees more then ~50 days of uptime.
