Loading...Firebird Protocol
Hi,
I’ve been working on an improved plug-in for wireshark (previously known as ethereal) and have produced a “Wire Protocol Specification” as a byproduct.
From my preliminary reading of news groups, etc., several people have asked for this kind of information. It’s not complete, it’s not correct but it’s better than anything else I have been able to find.
It should go in your Documentation and Papers section.
Regards,
Mark Chambers

Adriano has done some tests with the Firebird Protocol behavior in high latency (aka. Internet), and posted the results in his new blog. Worth reading!
Note: If you check the Firebird tracker, you will notice that the most voted feature right now is “improvent of the network protocol”. You can vote there too, to raise the priority even more.

About a month ago there was a question in Firebird (CZ) group how to find whether the user is able to use particular role or to get all roles for user.
As you probably know, a lot of stuff (almost everything) is in system catalog (system tables). The only problem is to figure out what’s the right set of parameters to use. To get all roles with users able to use it, you can use …
