Try a path without a space in it, or define an alias and use that alias to connect. Also, I think you should use gbak -b -user sysdba -password masterkey -service win2012server:service_mgr "c:/fb databases/lumber/lumber.fdb" "/common/lumber_remote.fbk" That is: - remove win2012server from the database path, you already specified the server in the `-service` - use forward slash instead of backslash However, when you create the backup this way, it will create it on the server. This doesn't seem to be what you want to do. AFAIK, Firebird 1.5 doesn't have streaming backup through the service manager, so you can't make a local backup directly to the client.
