Hi
Can there be any problem with a database, accessed simultaneously by
some or all of the following methods:
-- database file full path, /srv/firebird/mydb.fdb
-- database alias, mydb = /srv/firebird/mydb.fdb
-- another alias, another = /srv/firebird/mydb.fdb
-- /srv/firebird/link, which is a symlink to /srv/firebird/mydb.fdb
-- /var/firebird/mydb.fdb, where /var/firebird is a symlink to /srv/firebird
I'd expect firebird to be clever enough to know that it is serving the
same file, but I'd like to be sure it is true, and for all the
architectures (classic/super).
Thanks
