Hey thanks for responding. I actually did do 'make install' but I am
sure it is something like that, that I am missing.

Sorry my actual php file looked like this, on line 47:

if(!($dblink = ibase_connect("/opt/firebird/anecesis.fdb",
"SYSDBA","******"))){
print("Cannot Connect");
exit();
}

I reinstalled the distro and firebird because I had installed and
reinstalled like 15 times and messed around in a bunch of config files
and it was starting to get wierd.

Now I have not installed php yet. I installed firebird while root user
but it should be running as user firebird.
The following commands work correctly:
/opt/firebird/bin/isql connect '/opt/firebird/examples/employee.fdb'
/opt/firebird/bin/isql connect
'localhost:/opt/firebird/examples/employee.fdb'

But
/opt/firebird/bin/isql connect
'192.168.2.4:/opt/firebird/examples/employee.fdb'
does not work and prints error: "connection rejected by remote
interface".

The logfile has these 2 entries like 10 times.
/opt/firebird/firebird.log:
slinux2 Sat Nov 29 12:13:05 2003
SERVER/process_packet: connection rejected for root

slinux2 Sat Nov 29 12:13:05 2003
SERVER/process_packet: connect reject, server exiting

Will apache need to connect through 192.168.2.4 and not localhost?

Thanks
Ian
