One of my clients has a courier modem on a NetWare machine and when I last
checked on the server the PPP link was at 46 days. They are in the CBD so it

That is when you wish Linux had a LVM built in ala AIX. (hoping for in
kernel 2.4)
Then you could have added the disk and all that without rebooting as long as
your h/w supports it.
