Helen, You sure about this? Seems entirely non-intuitive to me. (I don't
know IBO at all,
so feel free to steer me straight if I'm all wet.)

To me the logical values would be server=ABCD,
path=/opt/interbase/dbdata/XXX.fdb, and those would produce
databaseName=ABCD:/opt/interbase/dbdata/XXX.fdb

The ZBD settings would also normally require the explicit mention of a port
number at client, server, or both ends.
