Rather than copying security2.fdb, I'd recommend using GSEC in your
installer (or creating a small util to make the required changes via
FB's services API). There's a lot of problems copying .fdb files between
systems, and also problems writing into "Program Files" directories that
modern Windows systems hide from you (if you're not careful, it can look
like you copied/edited a file there but in reality it's located
somewhere else).

More generally:
Could your app work with fbembed.dll? Would save you a lot of work
trying to install the full server.

Or, Firebird v3 will be out soon (maybe), which allows passwords to be
stored with the database file rather than with security2.fdb. A major
help for situations like this.
