We are converting our application from using IB to using Firebird. We moved from IBX to FIBplus components in Delphi 6.

One of the things that our application does is backup the database on a schedule of the customers choosing. ie. On application startup, daily, weekly, etc.

We have this working when working on the local host, but when the client is connecting remotely to a server we are having problems. It looks like the backup file is by default going to the client machine, and we are getting an error: "Error reading data from the connection."

We would like to be able to trigger the backup from our application, and be able to save the backup file on the server.

Any recomendations?
