Hi,

(firebird 1.5 / linux)

We are using firebird on a linux installed on a r/o root filesystem
(compact flash).

There is a /data filesystem mounted in r/w (compact flash too),
containing:

isc_init1.hostname
isc_lock1.hostname
security.fdb
the-database.fdb

(the files which should be in /opt/firebird are replaced by symbolics
links on /data/* )

There is also a r/w /tmp filesystem, which is a ram disk.

Question: is it safe to move the isc_*1.hostname files on the /tmp ram
disk?

At first glance, it seems to work. But is there any drawback?

Best regards,
Fabrice Aeschbacher
