it's obviously not an important generator. not something to use as a primary
key - just something to start today's counting off. right?

Well if you connect with different names (i.e. each user logs on as a server
validated separate user), then IBX's admin components can tell you a list of
users. But I'm not sure it reliable. Can you be sure that your application
makes only one connection while active? no threads? no additional
connections? with the same credentials?
