Subject Connecting to remote database on Centrox Linux
Author blizzardb2001
Hi, thanks for reading...

The short version:
After uploading my database to my linux server, my client cannot connect saying that my password has not been defined. So I'm now trying to create a new database and 'restore' to it.

The detail version:
*I've successfully installed the latest firebird on Centos in a Virtual Private Server Environment.
* Upon installation it automatically changed my SYSDBA password to something that's NOT 'masterkey'.
* I have built an existing database on my Windows XP machine that I need to move to the server.
* My client can connect to the 'demo' database on the server.
* I first tried the easy route of uploading the file straight to the server, but when I try to connect using my client it says:
"Your user name and password are not defined. Ask your database administrator to set up a Firebird login.. Error Code: -902." I have tried using both 'masterkey' and the new password.
* I then tried to create a database in linux so that I could 'restore' the XP database. I think I have successfully created the empty DB, now I have to figure out how to restore to it.
