If you're thinking commercial database software, please don't forget Faircom (also the original implementors of Informix's C-ISAM) Faircom actively supports FreeBSD and have satisfied this customer for over fourteen years. For many database applications their C-Tree data file management libraries are more than adequate and they offer an SQL server with ODBC support is available as well. http://www.faircom.com Cheers, Jerry Hicks wghicks@bellsouth.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-database" in the body of the message
