Yep common solution these days. Irritates my need to know why it's happening. Also a good percentage of our infrastructure runs on linux, but users will quite often come back with "can't you just reboot it" when on the rare occasion something is wrong and we are in the middle of solving the problem.<br>
<br>In my experience, especially with proprietary apps running on top (poor logging etc) our windows servers will go wonky occasionally and a reboot brings them back to running "normally". Where as our linux boxen, on the rare occasion that there is a problem a reboot generally won't solve it, you go check out the logs, search for a solution, solve it and get back to enjoying life as a linux sys admin. (I still have to wear both caps :( ).<br>

General observation in my workplace which is predominantly Windows environment, when a remote server's been up for a month or so and feedback is that logons and general performance is slow, first thing I hear the tech say is "we'll just give it a reboot, if that doesn't clean things up then we'll look further..."<br>
<br>
Is that a widespread attitude with Windows servers?<br>
