Of course, the modus operandi of Linux users everywhere, whom I have met in the past twelve years of Linux use, is simple: lie and say that Linux never needs rebooting.  Me?  Not so keen on the self-deception bit.

I had to reboot the Linux machine to get it to display web pages to the *public* properly, i.e. *serve* web pages properly. Not render them in a browser. SSI was fubared and content was scrambled. An init.d script restart of Apache failed to rectify the situation. Browser caches had nothing to do with it. Of course, I could do what other Linux aficionados do: lie about Linux stability.
