connection string if the server is on Linux:

servername:/path_to_db/mydb.gdb

e.g., my Linux server is coolduck and my dbs are in my /data/
partition. Here's what my Pascal/IBO clients on Windows or Linux connect to:

coolduck:/data/fbdb/test/test_d3.gdb

Not sure what you mean by "a non standard Language". Firebird has an API
through which you can specify things like client character set...

Have you read the Operations Guide? (OpGuide.pdf).
You'll need the API guide (APIGuide.pdf) if you are planning to write your
own client connection routine; or the Embedded SQL Guide if you are
planning to write embedded SQL apps.

There are encapsulated connection interfaces available for PHP4, Python,
Perl, Delphi, Kylix, Java and several others. You can look at the API
headers in ibase.h (in the /include directory).
