ibase_pconnect("database.domain.com:/db/drift/data.gdb", DB_USERNAME,
DB_PASSWORD, "UNICODE_FSS") or down(ibase_errmsg());

ibase_pconnect("a.domain.com:/db/drift/data.gdb", DB_USERNAME,
DB_PASSWORD, "UNICODE_FSS") or down(ibase_errmsg());


note that if the script is run from B the problem does not excist. Both
