I am trying to setup Firebird (FB) on a guest (DomU).  I should be
listening on 143.0.0.86:3050

When I run netstat | grep LIST  it seems that Firebird is listening on
Port 0.0.0.0:3050  .

I would have expected 127.0.0.1:3050  or  143.0.0.86:3050.

After talking to the hosting group (were I work) about this, they
suggested that it might be the bride address back to the host.


If it is, how do I get FB to Listen on a "normal" port.  If not, how do
I get FB to listen on a "normal" port?  :-)
    
        
            

Any local address.

  
      
          

Whenever I try to attach to Firebird,  I get "connection actively
refused by host"
How can I track down what is blocking the connection to the server?

Thanks to both of you for you quick answer.
    
        

Firebird might be binding before your preferred interface comes up, but
I don't think this is the Firebird users list. :)

  
      

I don't think that is the problem as FB works fine with Suse in VMWare
and without being in a guest Xen session.  In addition this is a Linux
error message, not a FB error message.  I have also asked them these
same questions.   So I am hoping between the two lists we can figure
this out so the next guy can use this knowledge.


    

What happens if you restart Firebird after it's completely booted?

  

Firebird in Classic mode starts on demand.  So the first time someone tries to attach to the server, the server starts.
