It's not possible. Users are stored in a separate database
(security.fdb in the Firebird folder). This database will be not be
accessible via regular SQL connections from Firebird 2.0 on (the name
will be security2.fdb). Setting the password is also impossible via
regular SQL (this applies to 1.5).

So you must use an application. The simplest one is the GSEC
command line tool that comes together with Firebird.
