I don't know, but if SYSTEM doesn't have rights to the directory where
the database is, the firebird service can not access the database.

Why would SYSTEM (or any other user) need rights to the directory?
Clients
talk to the Fb server process via TCP/IP port. That is, if you're not
using another protocol... If you're using NetBeui: switch to tcp/ip,
and
<server>:<drive>:<fullpath>\<dbname> will work fine, like:
SERVERNAME:C:\data\program\database\test.fdb (if C: is the drive letter
_as
seen on the server_ (not the client!)).
