Subject User Security for multiple servers
Author Steve Wiser
Hi,

We are using Interbase 5.6 (classic) for linux. We currently have 10
production servers housing about 200 GB of Interbase databases (we are
NOT using replication, these servers house databases for different
clients, but our employees need access to all of them). In addition to
these 10 servers we have 10 more at a backup location and another 3 at
yet another location. We are running into problems with synchronizing
the ISC4.gdb files across all of the servers. Right now we have an
in-house Delphi app that we give our business people that allows them to
create and modify Interbase users without having access to SYSDBA and
other bad stuff. This app will synchronize their actions across all of
the servers, however there are cases when the link is not functioning
properly between buildings or 1 of the servers is down and this causes
the ISC4.gdb files to get out of sync with each other. Anyone else
running Interbase on multiple servers and how do you keep your ISC4
files in sync?

Thanks,
Steve
