Using the RemoteAuxPort is an option. The problem in my case is that I`m joining a group of programmers who don`t really like the idea of a static port (probably bad memories from the classic version). I`ll try to spare some time on the provider and add a "Int32 GetEventPort" function ... or property. I would really appreaciate it if you could tell me when the port is randomized (for every database connection, at every Nth event etc.). I`ll send a "proposal" as soon as I do a few tests on it. As for "this setting won`t work with ssh", I have done tests. If you wish I could post working ZeBeDee configs for further stability tests. -- Потребител на революционната програма за работа с електронна поща в Opera: http://www.opera.com/mail/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Firebird-net-provider mailing list Firebird-net-provider@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-net-provider
