I assume we are talking sysdba here.

try:

/opt/interbase/bin/changeDBAPassword.sh

(it changes the password and updates the /etc/init.d/firebird scriptn).

or

/opt/interbase/bin/gsec -user sysdba -password mypass

and edit the script youself.


I assume it left the generated sysdba password in
/opt/interbase/SYSDBA.password, is that the case?
