Installation:

Download: FirebirdCS-1.5.1.4481-RH7-0.i386.tar.gz and gcc-3.2.3-lib-rh7.3-i386.tar.gz
cd /
tar vxfz gcc-3.2.3-lib-rh7.3-i386.tar.gz
echo "/usr/local/gcc-3.2.3/lib" >> /etc/ld.so.conf
ldconfig
install the Firebird tar normally (default dir:/usr/local/firebird).

Tested in prodution without any relevant issues.

Tested with a Windows 2000 SP2 machine. Firebird-1-00-RC2.exe

MyInnoSetup "script", to build this script you need "My Inno Setup Extensions" and Inno Setup Preprocessor.

I don't release a client only install because with Firebird you just need gds32.dll in your system dir (eg: c:\winnt\system32) or in your application working dir, but remember that you need winsock 2 installed, if you have win95 clients you must install "windows socket 2 upgrade".

Updated 21-12-2001.
Changes:

Removed RC1a and Snapshot 664 from page.

Added RC2 and minor script changes.

Updated 13-12-2001 with changes made by Ing. Petr Šilar (Thank you) and me.
Changes:

Updated binaries with correct version numbers.

Setup detects previous instalations of this unofficial install refuses to install until the uninstall of RC1.

Creates batch files (and icons) to stop,start,restart,install and uninstall the service in NT,2K,XP.

Copies msvcrt.dll to {sys} if doesn't exists.

Creates regkey \Software\Firebird Database Server.

Other minor changes.

The Guardian doesn't install as a service in NT,2K,XP because Firebird doesn't need it :)

Updated 21-11-2001 with changes made by Olaf Monien (Thank you).
Changes:

It installs as a service under NT

If not exists ISC4.gdb, it creates one from the copy

Converted documentation from troff to PDF.
