Subject Embedded firebird on ntfs share
Author paulfirebird@ymail.com
Hi all,

I'm struggling with embedded firebird which has to open (Yes, I know the risks, and to be absolutely sure I created a readonly database with gbak) a database on a ntfs share.

When I call isc_attach_database (via delphi/interbase or visual studio/firebirdsql.data.firebird.dll) I get the 335544721 (Unable to complete network request to host) error.

I tried firebird 1.5, 1.5.2 and the latest (2.1.3) and neither works.

I set the RemoteFileOpenAbility = 1 in the firebird.conf, I checked with procmon that the gds32.dll is loaded, and that the firebird.conf is read.

What else can I do to get this going?

Os:Win xp sp2
