1. It does not corrupt the DB but does cause hanging or phantom
connections that cause the DB to grow and performance to decline.
Since the DB is about 14MB that (usually) takes 2 min.
2. Connect string from RF PCs is
\\ips-name\D:\Dir_name\DBNAME.GDB where ips-name is the DB server.
Connect string on the server used by services is
LOCALHOST:D:\Dir_name\DBNAME.GDB
3. Components (?) are using Delphi6 and the BDE ver 5.11.
For more detail I can consult the vendor.

Thank you for you help.
