gbak does not need to be run on the same machine as the Interbase server.
I quote form "man gbak":
---------------------------------------------------
gbak is the tool for managing Firebird database backup and restore.
In backup mode source is an existing database path (may include server
name) and target is backup file name.
---------------------------------------------------
No, you don't use SQL calls to activate it, but you can run gbak on any
machine which has teh Interbase client libraries installed, and point it to
the server.
IN any case, this has nothing at all to do with where I choose to run the
Argus user interface and where I choose to run the server.

All the more it makes sense to run it on a headless machine (as I am doing it)
and allow the GUI tools to be run on another machine
If you just tell me how to set up and configure Argus without your GUI tools I
am happy too.
What I got so far:
- Firebird (Interbase) running
- Argus.gdb installed and accessible with isql
- Java installed and working
- HeSA location keys installed (and imported into my local OpenSSL keystore)
so what's the next step if I cannot run your GUI tools (e.g. ArgusMessenger)?
