I'm currently going through my code tidying things up, and in the process
I'm changing mapped drives to UNC paths for greater flexibility down the
road.  The reasoning is that as the system grows, if I add another hard
drive to the server, I can just change a particular share and redirect all
accesses to that drive.  While doing this, I started thinking about the
Interbase database too.  Addressing this from the clients requires a fiexd
drive mapping, but it would be useful to use a UNC path instead.  Is that
possible with Interbase 6?

I've Googled, but can't find any specifics.  Thanks for any ideas.
