SuperServer is just like Classic Server. Copy-Paste mentality is
really not a good idea. PC-DB app I assume means single user per DB.
If so, you want embedded not SuperServer.
Note, CS in firebird jargon stands for Classic Server not Client
Server.
Multi-user to a single database, you will need to install Classic or
SuperServer (or your own data abstraction layer). You can not
simply "file copy" these databases. In fact, in this case, I would
put the database file in a location the users have NO permissions to
see.
