Hi

If you have superserver, something like
/etc/init.d/firebird stop
should suffice.

If you have classicserver, then you need to reconfigure your inetd.
In that case firebird is NOT running, but will be lauched upon connection
request by inetd.

I am not sure, if this holds for mac osx.

Regards,
Steffen

Subject: [firebird-support] Stopping FB server on Unix (Mac OS X)

How do I stop the server process on Unix (Mac OS X specifically)? I see
there is a similar thread for Windows to this question. I know all the Unix
folks are laughing at me now, but I did what I thought was obvious
- kill the fb_lock_mgr, the only fb process I see running, and yet I can
still issue connections from other machines. The IB docs are of no use since
they talk about an ibmgr app (in the OpGuide.pdf), which I see no equivalent
for in the Mac OS X install.

Pardon my ignorance of Unix functions. I vaguely know that a process can
stop itself and be reactivated when a new connection comes in on a specific
port, but I don't know if that's what is happening.

Much thanks for any assistance, especially that which points me to
documentation that I missed on this.

Thanks,

Eric
