    I'd have to say a week or so. I like to restart every once in a while, and maybe shut her down at night. I take care of mine like it's a kid, lol

    20 days, I've gotten used to the fan noise, it also helps that I have some quiet fans.

    As far as turning off the power, once a non-notebook system is turned on it is not turned off - except for hardware failure. My longest running box is a P2-450 DNS server that been on continuously since July 15, 1998. Most of my systems go about a year without a reboot when kernal patches are done.

    You had that DNS running since 1998 without a power failure, reboot, etc etc? So the update will state to be over 5 years?

    God damn!

    I think the most I have seen was just a tad over 600 days on a Novell 4.0 server.. (It wasnt mine to administer)...

    The system has been rebooted a couple of times, but never turned off.
    All my stuff is on battery/generator backup. The DNS is strictly for my internal, private network.
