If you plan to run it on a Debian system, I'd like to suggest MySQL. It's available as a Debian package and there's a Win32 ODBC driver for it too (just get it from their homepage http://www.tcx.se/). It's free for personal and internal company use. I don't yet have much experience with it but at least it looks like a better alternative to Solid, which I have /little/ experience with. (Solid isn't horrible either, quite the contrary actually, especially for Windows use, but...) Tools are ok, features look nice (BLOBs, multithreaded, can host multiple databases, access control), speed is more than good, there's source :) and it's available as a Debian package -- what else can I hope for :) ODBC driver works just fine but we haven't pushed it performance wise, so that aspect is unknown. We _will_ stress it, though (we plan to dump pretty large amounts of debug, profile, status, etc. data (per time unit) from an NT device driver to it) :) Please notice that I have practically no experience with many different databases systems, especially commercial ones, so consider this just as a suggestion for something to check out. //Hannu -- E-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST.
