Hi guys,
We have an application here at work that was written in the mid to late 90's that has a database server that is running on firebird 1.0.3 on redhat. The database has the borland extension (.gdb) and all the automated backup files have a .bak extension.

I am trying to copy and transfer the database to firebird 2.1.2 on windows server 2008.

Things I have tried so far:
shifting the .gdb file to the windows system and registering the new database.

restoring one of the .bak files to a new database

These methods are not working.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Are there any intermediate steps?

Thanks
Anthony
