Interesting idea, although this particular approach isn't ideal from the
perspective of the internal architecture — the clientQ stuff belongs to
and is defined within the CA server code, which is built separately
after the IOC database and the dbAccess.c file that you modified.
Currently the database code knows nothing about the CA server that is
sitting on top of it, and I want to keep it that way and allow
additional servers such as pvaSrv to call dbProcess() from their client
threads.

It should be possible to have the servers register a routine that
dbProcess() can call to print the current client host and user names.
The RSRV server already provides two routines in rsrv.h that gets those
names without having to delve into the innards of server.h but we would
still have to add the registration code.

I'll see what I can do to get something like this into 3.15.

Thanks,
