Subject RE: [firebird-support] Firebird on FreeBSD
Author Nigel Weeks
SuperServer used to be available in the same port, and both versions were
installed at the same time - you simply start up the version that you need.

As I don't use SuperServer, I hadn't noticed the change.
I know the maintainer, so I'll check it out. He's been busy porting Vulcan
to FreeBSD...

Nige.
