I will only add, that if you will choose first of described method you can also modify<br />
c:\windows\System32\driver<wbr />s\etc\serv<wbr />ices <br />
file by adding:<br />
fb20 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 3040/tcp &nbsp; &nbsp;firebird20 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; #Firebird 2.0 server<br />
Interbase &nbsp; &nbsp;3050/tcp &nbsp; &nbsp;firebird15 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; #Interbase 5.5 server<br />
<br />
if you do that, you can access to database by passing file name:<br />
<br />
localhost/fb20:c:\mydataba<wbr />se.gdb<br />
or<br />
localhost/Interbase:c:\myd<wbr />atabase.gd<wbr />b<br />
<br />
depends on which one SQL server you want use<br />

There should be:<br />
<br />
fb20 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 3040/tcp &nbsp; &nbsp;firebird20 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; #Firebird 2.0 server<br />
Interbase &nbsp; &nbsp;3050/tcp &nbsp; &nbsp;Interbase55 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;#Interbase 5.5 server<br />
<br />
Sorry for mistake<br />
I had copy that from my own services file (I'm using Firebird 1.5 and 2.0 on the same machine)<br />

Is it possible to have Interbase 5.5 and Firebird 2.0 installed at the same machine ? so that I could toggle between them when I want to use Interbase 5.5 or toggle again when I need Firebird 2.0 ? And the way to toggle them ?
