My Question again. Do you have AppArmor enabled?? It can prevent fb from
working.
Its a security tool from Novell/SuSE. Look here :
http://en.opensuse.org/Apparmor
If you have installed AppArmor you must create a so called 'Profile' for
your App.(FB)
If you dont do it AppArmor will proactively protect the operating system!
Or just uninstall AppArmor.

Done. I don't think it is the permissions, at least at the directory /
file level. I can attach directly to the DB but not through IP as the
Firebird user.

Helen said something about installing as the Firebird user instead of
the root. Should I try that next?
