Hi!

I'm using Securebridge and IBDAC to connect to a Firebird 2.1 server.

Here is my setup:

I have two computers within the same wireless network.

Computer 1:
IP 192.168.1.104
SecureBridge SSH server component running on port 22
Firebird server running on port 3050

Computer 2:
SecureBridge SSH client connecting to SSH server on port 22
SecureBridge Port forwarding active with the following settings:
DestHost: 192.168.1.104
DestPort: 3050
SourcePort: 3050
and default settings.

Now when I try to connect to the database on 192.168.1.104 with IBDAC from Computer 2, I get the following error:
"Unable to complete network request to host: "192.168.1.104". Failed to estabilish a connection."

The SSH connection is created without problems, the tunneling is running and if I ping Computer1 from Computer2 everything is OK.

Computer1 has it's default Windows Firewall turned on, which is blocking port 3050, but I assume this should not be a problem, as data is coming in on port 22, right?

Thanks for your help!

To solve the problem, you should set the TIBCConnection.Server property to 'localhost', to connect to the database via SSH tunnel.

Thank you, this has solved the problem!
