Michael Hi,
i don't know if this is fixed already, but for Interbase/Firebird to
connect to a remote server you need to add the FQDN/IP to the
database name, i.e. HostName + ':' + DatabaseName for the the second
and third arg on isc_attach_database function call.
And where exactly is this a problem ?
in TIBConnection there is a property Hostname. So, people expect to put
there the Server Name or IP and the location of the DB in the
DatabaseName property. But in IBConnection unit in isc_attach_database,
only the DatabaseName is used.
Of course if you include the Server Name / IP in DatabaseName all is
working fine but i think that in that case the HostName property just
confuse people.
regards,
