As you can see in the attached images, it is possible to connect to a server database by mean of the internal driver (at least in Windows, I'm not sure in some Linux) In the first I've connected simultaneously to the same database, one connection by mean of JDBC driver and the other by mean of internal driver. In the second image it is clear than the connection is established to the server, becouse is a connection to a registered database and you can see the is done with "firebird External" driver -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
