What is uptime really?What is uptime really?Posted Apr 20, 2008 17:54 UTC (Sun) by ibukanov (subscriber, #3942)In reply to: What is uptime really? by Milan Parent article: Reliability: Unix and Linux beat Windows (heise online)
> Uptime 300+ day tell us only that the machine is leaved unmaintained and vulnerable... Such uptime tells only that the kernel was not updated. It does not mean that the rest of the system was not properly maintained. If a vulnerability in the kernel can not be exploited over a network connection, a decision to skip updating the kernel is very reasonable if the system is a file or web server with no local user accounts.
