Hi,

Since I see that topic comes out from time to time, I wrote a simple
Firebird Embedded Linux HOWTO. It shows how you can use embedded
Firebird on Linux without having the full server installed, and without
having access to root account:

http://sotu.berlios.de/Firebird-Embedded-Linux-HOWTO.html

It also shows how to use FB Embedded with IBPP to compile a simple test
application.

P.S. Perhaps someone would be interested to add this to knowledge base
at Firebird and/or IBPP website? I hate when documentation is scattered
around.
