Shut!!! Our main Linux server that handles mail (SMTP/POP3), WWW (apache), HTTP proxying and caching (Squid), primary DNS, remote access (PPP), file and printing services (Samba and NFS), network News (innd), among other things, crashed yesterday after 75 days of up time.
Boy, I can tell you it is really _stressing_ to arrive in the office on Monday morning and find your spoiled server on its biting the dust. Phones ringing every 30 seconds, people coming into your office to know what's going on, etc. In 3 hours we were up again because we took the SCSI drives to an old [EMAIL PROTECTED] MHz and recompiled the kernel. Not a big deal. After all, it was nice because now I am configuring a [EMAIL PROTECTED] MHz with an AHA 2940 Ultra and a Barracuda. It's a nice way to get rid of that old [EMAIL PROTECTED] MHz with the FDIV bug (and of course the LOCK bug). The server is running Debian 1.3.1 (started at Debian 1.1) and it was the power supply that failed. It's been quite an experience. See ya! E.- -- Eloy A.
