You need Firebird 2.1 or higher on Windows. Then all depends on the
Authentication configuration parameter in firebird.conf.

* Authentication = native

Authentication is against the Firebird security database only.


* Authentication = trusted

Authentication is with the Windows domain/workgroup user only.


* Authentication = mixed

If you provide a user/password at connect time, then native
authentication is used. If you don't provide a user/password at connect
time, then you are using Windows authentication.


Hope this helps.
