a client of mine is having an issue with his asta/ibobjects based
firebird application hanging after my BDE based firebird application
connects to a database on the same server. He says the scenario is this
they are running their asta based application fine. Then when my
application connects through the BDE to its database, their asta app
hangs and my app runs but seemingly sluggish. After my application
disconnects, they still cannot run their asta application without having
to restart their firebird server. The server version is 1.5.2

Any ideas why this may happen and how i can troubleshoot it?

Thanks
