If you are looking for a relational database, at the lightweight end is mSQL and at the other end is Postgres. I've been using the latter and it works pretty well although it is not too speedy. It comes with an interactive command based interface, and programming interfaces for C, C++ and tcl. A perl interface is also available. There is also a commercial offering called cbase for which you can get a demo version. Look at http://www.freebsd.org/commercial.html for details on that one. Postgres can be found at http://s2k-ftp.CS.Berkeley.EDU:8000/postgres95/. Sorry, I don't have a pointer to mSQL at the moment. Hope this helps! -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fallout.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ================
