@lukstru At the end of the 90s our company had to patch and restart all servers of our customers to make the server software Y2K safe. One colleague travelled from customer to customer. At one customer he said: "I have to patch your server". The answer: "What is a server? We don't have something like that."

The colleague then traced the network cable through the workshop to a huge pile of wood scrap. that filled a part of the room. They had to remove that scrap for quite some time and then found the server there. The Novell server had an uptime of several years.
