This machine has been running for nearly 3 years *and* it has multiple users too? What manner of *black magic* is at work here?

A few hundred years ago and you would have been burned as a witch for something like this, but given the lack of computers back then I doubt any precedent has been set, so consider yourself lucky ;-)

The load average might possibly imply that you're giving this machine a fairly easy ride in its old age though - so the real question is: does it actually perform any useful function(s)?
Hmm, I wonder if you could do a nix port to a fridge-freezer or something? Still, even that would need defrosting every so often, so I consider myself suitably impressed at your 4-figure achievement. Truly you are the geek's geek. Bravo!
...all assuming you weren't just a cheating b*st*rd and edited the uptime, of course ;-)

Got two servers in a pair (solar and balor), doing NIS, DNS, sendmail, Big Brother (systems monitoring), licenses and a few other things.

They're legit uptimes. When they rebooted was when they were moved into that computer room.

Of course, it also means their patching is _way_ out of date, but they're pretty locked down too, so....

Very interesting, a 5:1 user ratio - is there an alignment restriction as to who can log on?

After all, it seems that the dark side is stronger! ;-)
