You should open the port 3050 in the client and in the server

Asunto: [firebird-support] Connection String Question


I was able to set up a DSN and get connected to a Firebird database and
execute queries, however I wanted to change to a connection string. I
am using . . .

Driver=Firebird/InterBase(r) driver;Uid=SYSDBA;Pwd=masterkey;
Dbname="\\dc1atl\GageInSite\gianyib.gdb";

I've tried some variations (including using Database instead of Dbname
and using servername), but I keep getting an "Unavailable Database"
error. Googling it has not turned up anything that works. This is
Firebird 1.5 and I'm using the 2.0 client. I'm running on XP and
connecting to the FB database on a Win2003 server.

Any help would be appreciated.
