I have following command line:

d:\gbak -b -user sysdba -password masterkey im:/db/cf.gdb im:/db/cf1.gbk

where d: - is Win2000 workstation with firebird working as a service (for
developement)
im is linux server with firebird classic (for testing)
/db is the link to the directory on linux server where gbd file is placed.

gbak reports error: cannot open backup file im:/db/c1.gbk

Is the only way to get my command working the replacing classic with
superserver one?
