You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

at work we had some servers which were vulnerable to half open tcp connections killing the host, it was some bug in the kernel which was fixed a long time ago and security took down a few racks of the hosts by probing them. Turns out the hosts hadn't been restarted... ever and had an uptime of like 2200 days, made me sad to bounce em. They had been running longer than most people on the team had worked on them
