Where do I find fbstat? It is not included in the 2.5.2 download I pulled yesterday from firebirdsql.com. It is not in the bin directory nor the top directory.

Here is what is in the bin directory:

C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_2_5\bin>dir
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is FA80-0C12
