Longest-Serving Web Server?

Posted by Cliff on from the work-horses-by-virtue-of-continued-operation dept.

frisket asks: "The Sun IPX formerly known as curia.ucc.ie (now imbolc.ucc.ie) entered TBL's CERN main menu in 1992 to serve the CURIA project (now CELT) as a search engine (running PAT). The same machine is still doing the same job, and we're trying to find out if it really is the longest continuously-serving Web server. Does anyone know if any of the other links from that page at the time (has anyone a copy even?) are which are still served by the same hardware?"

    There must be a proxy somewhere between me and slashdot, 'cause there is no fucking way I should be seeing no comments. There should be at least 6 first post attempts by now, maybe an ASCII goatse.cx picture or two, and maybe an 'IRIX is dying!' post.
