It will not work even in FB3, gsec does NOT understand multiple security 
DBs. So please use isql:

isql -user xyz your-database.fdb
SQL> create user XYZ password 'zyx';

You need not switch - you may access some databases as embedded, others 
- using server (that's about SS, in case of classic you may access same 
database as embedded and server simultaneously). In a case you have 
problems trying to access some database embedded you may try to stop 
superserver - may be somebody is/was using server access to it.

No you need not.
