change the serverpath=server:c:\path\mydb.gdb that should make it use TCP/IP
connection.
If that fails chnage the name of the server to the IP address of the server
127.0.0.1:c:\data\data.gdb for example

On the client, there is a shortcut to the exe on the server.
On the client, there is an ini file that points to the database on
the sever path=\\server\c:\path\mydb.gdb for example. The username
and password are hardcoded on app startup.

This works 100% on another network and here at work, but if this is
not the best way to go about things, please say.

I have never heard of HOSTS - the network is TCP/IP
