Hi Ian,

Unless I am mistaken, I don't think you can use SYSTEM with runas (or
at least I am not sure what password it wants, it doesn't want the
administrator password)

Alan's suggestion does make sense though. I do not have a spare 2k3
server sitting around I can try it on, but perhaps you could create a
firebird user and use this as the user in services.msc rather than
letting it run as system. Then you could try Alan's suggestion.
