Morning all,

Just my £0.02:

Well, in my real job I'm an Oracle DBA. I can confirm that if I get onto your server and copy the database files over to my server, where I have the role of SYSDBA enabled, I can get into your database and see all your data. So, no, it's not Firebird Specific.

Cheers,
Norman.
