Hi, Great job! I've experienced the same problems with IB 6.01 on Debian Linux. There were few differencies from your "how to": > 1. > > Install Interbase from www.interbase.com. Unpack and run, > there is no problem. Attention on the first gsec call. > gsec -user SYSDBA -password changeme (different to windows, > where the password is "masterkey") > > Create a database. See Doku. Completely agreed. Also, if you have a Win32 box, you can use the IB Console (comes with Win32 version of the IB 6.01) for performing these tasks. However the InterBase 6.01 worked bad during tests (my database appeared corrupted after lots of remove() invocations on remote party of CMP entity bean). I switched to Firebird 0.9.4p1 and everything was fine. > Second problem: the interserver from from Borland will not > run on Suse Linux 7.0 because a libary is missing.

Same on Debian. interserver is executed only when the connection is established to the port 3060 and it prints the error message to the telnet stream. Standard JDBC driver does not recognise this problem and complains about the wrong version of interclient.jar and interserver. This is quite misleading. > If will not have egcs installed.

Thanks to David Jenks. > I am not sure about his modifications to this driver. On Debian I just recompiled the interclient classes. No changes were neccessary. All further steps on configuring the JBoss are the same. Currently I'm installing the same configuration on the SPARC/Solaris 7 platform, and I use Firebird 0.9.4, I do need to recompile the interclient. After finishing that things I will report the results.
