Hi,
i don't understand, i can see correctly the network drives (from my
client) but i can't make a valid connection to FireBird server.
If NetBeui was disabled why i can see my network drives ?
I have test the Database connection with IBConsole (Server->Diagnose
connection -> Netbeui) and this is the error message:
Attempting to attach to SERVER using NetBEUI.
An error occurred attempting to connect to SERVER
using the following named pipe:
\\SERVER\pipe\interbas\server\gds_db
NetBEUI Communication Test Failed!
Some news ?
Regards,
Enrico Raviglione.
