Hmmph! (at least you've got an UPS!)
Allow me (small fish in big pond) my little conceit. Actually, faenor is
more a measure of the ESB's uptime than anything else. It's a 486/66 running
RH6.2 as an internet gateway / firewall / dial-on-demand box so it's
fairly quiet mostly. Dunno how I'm going to preserve the uptime when I
move it to the attic or somewhere out of the way. hobbiton is the network
server that has experimental stuff done to it from time to time hence the
reboots. It'll be going down again soon for RAM and HDD upgrades.
Never did manage to get the uptimes.net client working though
(www.uptimes.net).
