I am new to Firebird. Was able to install on Windows 7 64-bit no problem. Immediately after install ran gsec –user ‘SYSDBA’ –password ‘<the default firebird password>’ with no problems. However, on Windows XP Pro SP3, I downloaded the 32-bit exe installer. Install ran fine. When I try to run gsec I get something like “User name or password not defined, see your system admin”, etc. or something like that. Am I missing something here? I have read the on-line manuals. I just joined this group, but I have not searched the group’s message history yet. Would appreciate any help.
