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'; > Can I simply > switch between server and embedded mode? 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. > Or do I need separate > Firebird (one embedded, one server) installations for that? No you need not. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
