Terrific! Everytime I hit an obstacle in Firebird, I am increasingly
impressed with the forethought given to the intelligent design.

Is there problem if I put it as the same port as the database, ie
3050? That is what the new interbase does, and I'm not real sure I
want to do that. Just wanted to know.
