Try creating a database with isql (the command is: "CREATE DATABASE
"xxxx.gdb";" in isql). Or simply try running gsec to display a list of
users.

I just looked at my install, and I don't have the example either. That
was an oversight on my part. As for sysdba, the name should be in all

Firebird.framework/Resources/English.lproj/var/isc4.gdb.

Every platform has slightly different packaging. The OS X install is
more like a unix install than a windows install.
