We are running our FB server on a different port. Most of our applications
connect just fine. We have one application that has trouble. It works fine
on the developer machine, but on the end users machine it says it cannot
connect.

Its written in Delphi 7 usining IBX. The conneciton string is like this:

www.something.com/1234:c:\database\something.gdb

From the end user machine I can telnet and connect to the host on the port.

Any ideas? I'm leaving for Fiji tommorrow and I've traveled to 6 countries
in the last week. Its been dogging me every since we had to reinstall the
end users computer last week and its at a very bad time. If I can solve this
before tommorrow evening Pacific time I'd be utterly grateful.
