Helen,

Thanks, that worked very well, so I managed to install the CS version and
changed the password with the script. I re-booted Linux, and tried to access
the service from another PC, it seems the Firebird service is not running,
and it's not listed as a "service" to turn on, do you know how to start it?

Fabian
