Having extracted fbtrace.conf from the Firebird-2.5...zip, it looks
like I can use someting like the following for a database with alias MYDB:
-----------------------------
<database MYDB>
enabled true
log_filename D:\TRACE\mydb.log
max_log_size 10
log_connections true
</database>
-----------------------------
Will failed connection attempts also be logged?
Are there any rules regarding the use of database alias or filenames ?

I may find a pc where I can install Fb/2.5 so I can test (and also
see the layout of the trace and what kind of information it provides).
