Thank you. Downloaded the latest bits (Nov-6) => FirebirdCS-2.5.2.26539-0.amd64.tar.gz package and followed the same instructions. Again, there is no trace of "fb_lock_mgr" file as discussed in both blogs. I noticed the addition of "gbak" file which I included in the "bin directory in the second post you have given. However I am still getting this: baskint@Tucker:~/fbemded$ bin/isql -user sysdba -pass masterkeycan't format message 17:3 -- message file /home/baskint/fbembed/firebird.msg not foundSQL> Thinking it is some kind of access issue, I have switched to "root". And it connected the first time, but now it does not. I think the database is locked or a process got hung. Not sure. I would like to understand how to open and close connections with isql command. How can I change the access level so that my regular account can use the isql command? I will keep digging. Thanks again, Baskin
