Fixed hosts tables on all three machines now - but made no difference.
All pings are sub 1ms
Access to Apache on port 80 is not a problem, and PHP's access to the Firebird
server IN Linux box is not a problem. Also TightVNC into the box seems fine.
It is ONLY the 3050 port and Firebird that seems to have the problem which is
what I can't explain :(
