Subject Re: installing fb on a read only filesystem
Author Fabrice Aeschbacher
Artur,

You were right. I only had to put the following files on a r/w
filesystem:
- /usr/local/firebird/firebird.log
- /usr/local/firebird/security.fdb
- /usr/local/firebird/isc_init1.<hostname>
- /usr/local/firebird/isc_lock1.<hostname>

Thanks,
Fabrice
