Yes. It's called gbak.exe.

Download the Win32 kit from Sourceforge and do a tools-only install
to somewhere convenient; then copy gbak.exe to the directory where
FbEmbed.dll is (renamed to fbclient.dll, of course). Instructions
for using gbak are in the IB 6.0 Opguide.pdf.

Alternatively, write you own service application to do the backups.
