Sorry, I meant to say that you need to set
IB_Connection.DatabaseName := lnxsrvr:/var/ib_data/dbmsname.gdb
and
IB_Connection.Protocol := cpTCP_IP

I actually did understand you Lucas, I'm just thinking that it is possible
to create a database via a remote machine. Is it written somewhere that you
can not create a new database via a network/remote machine?

For example:

If you set your IB_Connection.DatabaseName property to
lnxsrvr:/var/ib_data/dbmsname.gdb and you set your
IB_Connection.DatabaseName property to cpTCP_IP, surely the script should
execute successfully. I think it would be a major pain if IB/FB can not
create databases from a remote machine.

Don,

maybe I didn't express myself correct.

I didn't want to say you can't create a database on a remote server, I
wanted to say you can't create a database where the database-file is not
on the server itself!

So the filename of the database has to point to a "local path" as seen
by the server itself.
