  6:11am  up 30 days, 19:43,  1 user,  load average: 0.00, 0.02, 0.00
The box that came from has had major surgery since the last boot: all
relevant updates to RH 4.2, kernel included: I'm waiting for the next
power failure to actually install that.
It's running Apache 1.3 - compiled on the spot as the RH rpms require
glibc and I'm not prepared to switch to that on the fly by remote control.

I expect Leon's box has the same uptime.



like my sig!!
