Hi all,

When connecting to a firebird DB, can one control the access methods
to the database such as: Read only, read-write shared, exclusive-
write, and exclusive-all?

There are situations where I want to restrict access to the database
from other connections; in most cases I want to allow multi-user
read-write access to the DB, but in some cases I want to restrict
write-access, but allow read access, and in other cases I want to
restrict all access to the database by other users. What would be
the best (i.e. most elegant, or standard) way of accomplishing this?
