You can also use uptimed, to create mails at long uptimes. I got 500
days uptime confirmed, which is really good, I think.
Chances are that bragging about up times that long is a failing, not a
feature. Kernels and other components get updated regularly enough and
sometimes to get the benefit of a security fix, you really have little
choice than a reboot.
Percentage up time is a far better metric.
Everything (even the kernel, though lenny might not have the needed
features) can be upgraded w/o rebooting. /usr/sbin/checkrestart is a
*wonderful* tool.
