It's the definition of "uptime". In the *nix world, uptime means that that the machine hasn't been shut down for any reason. In the Windows world, everytime (well, *almost* everytime) a windows update is applied, you have to reboot the server. Every reboot restarts that "uptime" clock. So unless you didn't apply any security patches (gasp), I'm sure your 2 NT servers were not continuously running from 96 to 99. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Chris Barnes AOL IM: CNBarnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo IM: chrisnbarnes Computer Systems Manager ph: 979-845-7801 Department of Physics fax: 979-845-2590 Texas A&M University ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: eBay Great deals on office technology -- on eBay now!
