Hello Alex,

A> That's what will be changed in fb3 before beta1. It is true only if server itself has access to the this path. For example, you can not create files in /etc/ by default :) Also, usually FB server runs as firebird user and this user can not write outside explicitly defined directories, at least in *nix. So, this example does not impressing too :) -- Best regards, Sergey mailto:s...@dqteam.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
