"security.fdb" is the user authentication database for Firebird 1.5. It does not work under a Firebird 2 server. Simply renaming it will not make it work: you must read the Firebird 2 release notes and follow the instructions for upgrading your old "security.fdb" to "security2.fdb" for use with Firebird 2 and 2.1 servers.

If you perform the conversion according to instructions, the existing passwords should remain intact.

There is only ONE authentication database on a server. User authentication operates at *server* level, not at database level.
