hi,
i am developing a firebird agent that works as a win32 service.
soon it will be at sourceforge, but for now if anyone wants to try it, just
ask me the binaries.

current features:
-job schedule
-multiple steps per job
-step kind: sql script, os command, backup
-jobs management gui

next features:
-view job history
-view job current activity
-notify via mail

future features:
-linux port
-replication script
-replication from another DB (like MSSQL)
-job management api

i hope it will be useful.

regards,
marianop
