In Fb v1.5 Dmitri Yemanov has implemented server-side aliases, so you
should be able to create an alias for the security database like (I not
sure of the exact syntax but...):

ISC4.gdb = C:\PROGRAM FILES\FIREBIRD\ISC4.FDB

So, you will be able to map the security database to any path and
filename you want.
