Hello Frank,

Why don't you use the linux tools for interbase/firebird?
They are available at http://mers.com or http://www.firebirdsql.org.

good luck, Arie

Hi Robert,

yes, the gds_db is in the services file of client and server, i install the 
interbase client

Hi,

When I use IBConsole.exe to do a 'Connection Diagnostic',  TCP/IP - gds_db 
passed, but 'DB Connection test' failed with the error 'unable to complete 
network request to...'
why one test to the machine got thru and the other failed? all tcp/ip.
