Firebird over network issues

Hey guys,
I have a program running on .NET framework with a firebird database usually I have to install this program on 2 different computers or more and access the database off one specific computer. However I have run into a problem which I havent been able to resolve lately and that is one of the computers just refuses to access the database.
I have turned off my firewalls I have allowed the correct user permissions, I have created a mapped drive to access the database and I can modify the database file from the other computer but when it comes to actually loading the db from my program it refuses to load.
So does anyone know of any other reasons why I cannot load the db? if so please help me out as I have no idea what could be wrong.
Thanks alot

It is so by design. You cannot open db in a shared folder from network.
If you want multiuser access, specify "server:{db_path_on_server}\database" in connection string.
Or "server:{alias}"

you cannot use FBEmbed.dll.

an example of how you should access the database:

Object.databasename = 192.168.0.1:E:\Data\MyDatabase.gds

where E:\Data\MyDatabase.gds is the path relative to the firebird server.
