---------------------------------------------------------
Firebird is now installed.

To start the server add the following line to /etc/services:

gds_db		3050/tcp  #InterBase Database Remote Protocol

And add the following line to /etc/inetd.conf

gds_db	stream	tcp	nowait	firebird	%%PREFIX%%/firebird/bin/fb_inet_server  fb_inet_server

And finally restart inetd.

A symbolic link from /usr/interbase -> %%PREFIX%%/firebird
may be needed for compatibility with existing programs
that use Firebird.

The symbolic link can be created with:

% ln -s %%PREFIX%%/firebird /usr/interbase

It is STRONGLY recommended that you change the SYSDBA
password with:

% cd %%PREFIX%%/firebird
% gsec -user SYSDBA -pass masterkey
GSEC> modify SYSDBA -pw newpassword
GSEC> quit

before doing anything serious with Firebird.

See %%PREFIX%%/firebird/RELNOTES for more.
