It's no different to the normal connection string? BUT you
do need a copy of Firebird installed on the server so that
ibWebAdmin can access the command line tools.

Perhaps I need to work on the Linux version of
http://www.ibphoenix.com/main.nfs?a=ibphoenix&page=ibp_beginners_php

In ibWebAdmin, you just provide the machine name of the
server you want to look at, but some of the pages will not
work if it can't find the right tool locally.
