Hi, we too have made the step from interbase (same linux and java problems, we even patched the jdbc driver...) to SAP DB. I highly recommend SAP DB, especially if you have a windows box to run the clients on (server under linux, of course ;-). Very handy, it was the database that took less time to install & configure of all the databases we tested - and the only one which did not hang at all by now (knocking on wood). Best regards and good luck Jens Stutte ____________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.netmedia.de netmedia GmbH Neugrabenweg 5-7 66123 Saarbruecken Germany fon: +49 (0) 681 - 3 79 88 - 0 fax: +49 (0) 681 - 3 79 88 - 99 > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Randahl Fink Isaksen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Gesendet am: Montag, 15.
