many thanks, Helen, but everything looks "proper" to me:

[zdk@zdk03 lib]$ cd /opt/firebird
[zdk@zdk03 firebird]$ locate firebird.msg
/opt/firebird/firebird.msg
[zdk@zdk03 firebird]$ ll firebird.msg
-r--r--r-- 1 firebird firebird 132796 Dec 12 2004 firebird.msg
[zdk@zdk03 firebird]$ cd bin
[zdk@zdk03 bin]$ locate fb_inet_server
/opt/firebird/bin/fb_inet_server
[zdk@zdk03 bin]$ ll fb_inet_server
-r-sr-s--- 1 firebird firebird 3144 Dec 12 2004 fb_inet_server

However, there ARE additional links to the libs in /usr/lib, but they
all just point back to /opt/firebird/lib. Isn't that ok?

[zdk@zdk03 lib]$ locate libfbclient.so*
/usr/lib/libfbclient.so.1
/usr/lib/libfbclient.so.1.5.2
/usr/lib/libfbclient.so

Thanks for your time and patience!
