Thanks, Massimo!

The auth.settings.password_field='password2' thing did the trick!

I'm afraid the '?set_encoding=None' thing doesn't work.

As I said earlier I tried using the string that you suggested:

db = SQLDB('firebird://sysdba:passw...@localhost/employee.fdb?
set_encoding=None')

but I got this error:

"'isc_attach_database:   I/O error for file "employee.fdb?set_encoding=None"
 Error while trying to open file.  No such file or directory'"
