Hi Sam,

Daemon in windows = Windows service:

Clients only have read access, can write from console:

Subject : [personal kdb+] kdb client-server set up

Hello,
I am confused on setting up KDB. I want to start a KDB server that runs as a daemon. I want to have an admin client that should be able to make changes to the schema, tables and data. Then I want to allow multiple clients read only access to the database. 

Now as per the documentation in several places, such as http://lifeisalist.wordpress.com/tag/kdb/, running q.exe on windows by default starts a server at port 5000. So how do I run this as a either client or server and implement the above permissions.

Any help appreciated.

Cheers

Sam
