for local databases only???

When I try to connect to a server on my network, not locally, I get an error that it can't access the file.
example
My computer has the IP 192.168.10.34 and the Interbase Server is on 192.168.10.3
If I try to connect to 192.168.10.3:c:datamybase.gdb... Gives error because you can't access C:DataMyBase.gdb. What am I doing wrong?
Yes, it supports remote DBs. The server IP/dname goes in the Data Source property of the connection string.
Try the Connection Builder demo to see how the strings look.
ex.
data source=192.168.1.52;initial catalog=Employee;user id=sysdba;password=masterkey
if i use a local bd .. work correctly. But when i use a bd in a network server... PROBLEM
data source=192.168.1.52;initial catalog=c:\data\Employee.GDB;user id=sysdba;password=masterkey -- NO WORK
data source=192.168.1.52;initial catalog=192.168.1.52:C:\data\Employee.GDB;user id=sysdba;password=masterkey -- no work
I/O error during "CreateFile (open)" operation for file "C:\data\Employee.gdb"
There is a bug with remote connections. Please follow #25 for updates. Sorry for the wrong information, My test scenario worked because I have the same alias setup on both local and remote DBs which is why it"looked" like it was working to me.
