The first thing you need to do is install the Firebird Database
server. The current version we are running is 2.5. Please visit the
below URL to complete this step.

If you are running a 64bit Operating System, then you need the 64 bit
version labeled as "Windows executable installer for full
Superclassic/Classic or Superserver, recommended for first-time
users".
If you are running a 32bit Operating System, then you need the 32 bit
version labeled as "Windows executable installer for full
Superclassic/Classic or Superserver, recommended for first-time
users".
You must download and run this installer on the machine that is
running the MTA server. You should choose all the default options with
which the installer presents you.
Once you have the database server installed and running, you will need
to add the below lines to the bottom of the MTA's general.config file.
This is located at /config.
[Database]
EnableServer = True
ServerType = Default
After you save this file you will have to restart the entire MTA
process. That means shutting down all the Windows servers and
restarting them, including the "Hurricane Server HTTP" service.
This will increase the performance of all database tasks. This will
also help with DNS caching and Report viewing in the MTA's UI.
