The database server is a Linux machine. I wouldn't know how to develop a server 
(using sockets) that runs on Linux so I could test the connection using 
sockets, but I don't think that the problem comes from here, since there are 
some Delphi - Interbase apps on the same Windows 2003 machine that run and 
properly connect to the Interbase Server on Linux. The problem appears only 
with the 2 apps developed in C# that use the .NET Firebird provider class.

One more important thing to know is that prior to installing the Windows Server 
2003, on that exactly same machine was installed a Win 2000 Server, and both 
the C# applications worked fine on it. So there must be some settings that the 
server had before and now are missing with the fresh install of the 2003 Server.

After digging more in the error logs, I also found this error:
"Unable to complete network request to host 192.168.100.55" (nn. that is the IP 
of the Linux machine).

Thank you for your prompt response.

  Hello,

   

   

  I have a connection problem from a Windows 2003 Standard Edition using 
FibProvider from a C#2005 application to an Interbase Server.

   

  The system I use is the following:

   

  Application written in C#2005, .Net Framework 2.0, FibProvider 2.0, hosted on 
a Windows 2003 Standard Edition.

   

  The database server is an Interbase 6.0 Open Source hosted on a Linux server.

   

  The application cannot connect to the database server from the Windows 2003 
server but if i move the application to another station, an XP station, it 
works perfectly.

   

  The error that i receive is something like ... "cannot connect to the remote 
server. The server actively refuse it".

   

  I presume it has something to do with the Windows 2003 settings... 

   

  If you can help me, i would very much appreciate it...

   

   

   

  Thank you
