[firebird-support] Forgot sysdba password

Hi! I have googled around a bit but can't seem to find anything simple to sort this problem out. I may have to reinstall the thing altogether. What I'd like to do is to reset the pw to something known (for, I am fairly sure I can't just recover it, it'll need to be reset). Suggestions?

[firebird-support] FB 4 - Beta 1 - Unstable... just how unstable is it?

Hello! Just a quick q to try to figure out if it's worth for me to use it as the basis of a greenfield, not-so-high priority, project I am working on. How unstable is FB4? Does it result in tables' data corruption, for example? Or does that mean that it'll hang for "no reason", as it were? Kind
