title: ibase_connect: local computer host, can't figure out working path
body: <p>I may be dumb. Not sure yet.</p>
  
  <p>Trying to do something that should be simple:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$database = '10.10.10.81:?????';
  $username = 'admin';
  $password = 'pw';
  
  $conn = ibase_connect($database, $username, $password);
  if (!$conn)
  {
      echo "Error while connecting: ".ibase_errmsg();
      exit();
  }
  
  echo 'workan';
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>We hit the error: connection rejected by remote interface. From another question here I read that this comes from various things: Could be a user/password problem, could be a host ($database) problem, something else that I forget.</p>
  
  <p>I believe my host string is terribly wrong and can't figure out how I should be going about this. Perhaps my google-fu is not up to par.</p>
  
  <p>Trying to get to
  E:\fishbowl\database\data\base.fdb
  on 10.10.10.81, a separate local computer</p>
  
  <p>Tried a bunch of combinations but can't seem to make anything work.</p>
  
  <p>Edit: Just a heads up, this is a firebird database. Not sure if that changes things</p>
