Agreed, if :) people leave them alone ... but they don't always do that.
Som people took the PostgreSQL server on the RaQ3 and tried to use it for
various custom applications ... and on occasion would do such fun things as
accidentally dropping all of the tables, etc. Not a show-stopper, but it
does require a call to Cobalt support to run a script to repopulate the
tables.
Unfortunately, I took a look at the RaQ4's Chili!Soft ASP admin server and
while I found a driver for quite a few databases, I didn't see one for
Interbase.
Anyway, my point was basically just that Interbase is an add-on ... you can
take it instead of the PostgreSQL install and thereby not ever worry about
dropping the Postgres tables ... or you can leave them both alone. But
Cobalt didn't forsake the Postgres database like the beginning of this
thread made it sound.
