Okay, since it's the Y2K^WChristmas^WNew
Years's^W^W^W^WHoliday Season,
I thought I'd bring out an oldie.
On the first day of Y2K, my server said to me:
It's January, 1970.
On the second day of Y2K, my server said to me:
/var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the third day of Y2K, my server said to me:
stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the fourth day of Y2K, my server said to me:
hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full, and it's
January, 1970.
On the fifth day of Y2K, my server said to me:
no route to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var
is
full, and it's January, 1970.
On the sixth day of Y2K, my server said to me:
bad magic number, no route to host... hme is down, stale
file
handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the seventh day of Y2K, my server said to me:
can't open socket, bad magic number, no route to host...
hme is
down, stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January,
1970.
On the eighth day of Y2K, my server said to me:

number, no
route to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var is
full,
and it's January, 1970.
On the ninth day of Y2K, my server said to me:

socket,
bad magic number, no route to host... hme is down, stale
file

open socket, bad magic number, no route to host... hme

stale file handle, /var is full, and it's January, 1970.
On the B day of Y2K, my server said to me:
enter system password, out of ttys, can't fork process,
panic!
double panic!, can't open socket, bad magic number, no
route
to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full,
and
it's January, 1970.
On the C day of Y2K, my server said to me:
ok
enter system password, out of ttys, can't fork process,
panic!
double panic!, can't open socket, bad magic number, no
route
to host... hme is down, stale file handle, /var is full,
