4. Start the server and log in as SYSDBA, password masterke
5. Change the SYSDBA password, write down the new password and store it somewhere safe.
6. Pump the data from the saved isc4.gdb into your new one, excluding the record for SYSDBA.
7. If the old passwords don't work in the new isc4.gdb, set up new ones for all users.
NB This is also an ideal way for someone to get access to your data in a stolen database.
