Hi, we have an application that use Firebird Server at RedHat linux 7.3 and
last week our customer changed the server machine from a IBM Netfinnity to a
IBM xSeries. Then in the new server was freezing the ibserver process when
our application because it use the IBEvents (delphi ibx) component. (The
weird thing is that the NetFinity was using RHLinux 7.3 too).
The only way to solve this problem was adding the ip of server itself at the
/etc/hosts file.

It looks like this now:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.1.1 myserver.mydomain myserver

I'm sending this to the ib-support because i know that others already asked
about this problem before. And to ask if this behavior of freezing the
ibserver shouldn't raise an exception instead of freeze the server? If this
is a know bug or not?

TIA.
