I have placed two files in the Firebird anonymous FTP area:

 

4731223 Jan 17 20:48 FirebirdCS-0.9-4.AIX.bff.Z

  12299 Jan 17 20:48 FirebirdCS-0.9-4.AIX.readme

 

these represent a current build of Firebird for AIX.

 

FirebirdCS-0.9-4.AIX.readme is a Unix ASCII text file.

 

FirebirdCS-0.9-4.AIX.bff.Z is a compressed binary file.  Uncompress this file, using uncompress, and you will be able to use it as input to the AIX restore command.  The readme file has more information on this process.

 

Use these files at your own risk; they are presented with out any implicit or explicit warranties of any kind.

 

Here are the first few lines of the readme file:

 

Firebird Classic Server for AIX

 

This release was compiled on AIX 4.2.1.0 using gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release).

 

This is a test release of Firebird compiled from a download on Wednesday, January 17, 2001.

 

This release has been tested with all TCS tests except:

V4_EXCLUSIVE

IDML_C_CHARSET

 

 

 

The production system where I work uses a very similar build with up to 130 concurrent users with very few problems.

 

Please let me know how you make out.
