Quick and easy one,

Does anyone have a recommendation on how frequently to reboot Windows 2003
servers? I used to have to reboot my NT servers fortnightly and W2K monthly,
but W2K3 seems more robust.

Cheers one and all!
 
If you find yourself needing to do this then you need to get to the bottom
of why since the answer should be never.

It should be never for all server OS's. If there is a reason than something
is wrong. Obviously if your keeping the patches updated than never won't
apply but if performance increases because of a reboot than something is
wrong.
 
then, then, then ;)
