I have two XP computers connected peer to peer. One computer runs
Firebird server (1.53) and the other connects across the network to
access data on the server computer. Everything worked fine on the
client computer until it's hard drive died and had to be replaced.

After the crash, I ran a client only install on the client. Now when I
try to run an application from the client, users on the server machine
get an error message:

Missing configuration file: C:\Program
Files\Firebird\Firebird_1_5\aliases.conf

After they click OK, the user on the client machine seems to be able
to acess data without issue. What would cause this problem?
