Re: [ossig] 2 Malaysian organisations among 50 best uptimes



The uptime does not mean it is never rebooted. The probe from netcraft is not every minutes. The exact timing is up to them. If your server is restarted within 5 minutes, it is considered as up.

Personally, I'm a bit suspicious of machines with very high uptimes (more than
a few months) - since some security fixes (especially kernel related) require a
reboot, it might imply they don't take good care to apply patches.
You could argue that the best possible OS could dynamically load in all security
updates and would never require a reboot :)

At least as of today, we can say 'boleh' and 'bravo' to two Malaysian
organisations with the highest uptimes of hosting networks worldwide !!:

(MMU and Mimos)
Though, if you click on the respective netblock owner, you get a clear
picture to whom the uptimes ought be be attributed. To Open Source OSes
and Apache, which - as everyone knows - is Open Source as well.
