It's not like that anymore, you "just" need to know the path to the database file on the remote server. It has the ability to spread a database over several files to overcome OS limitations to the file size, but it's not transparent iirc. Firebirds concept of a database name in PostgreSQL is a filename on the servers file system. Other that that it's a serious database. -- Markus Bertheau. Berlin, Berlin.
