       $password = ini_get("fbsql.default_password")])

DESCRIPTION

       fbsql_connect(3) establishes a connection to a FrontBase server.

       the already opened link will be returned.

	The  link  to  the  server  will  be  closed as soon as the execution of the script ends, unless it's closed earlier by explicitly calling
       fbsql_close(3).

		- The server host name.

	      o $username
		- The user name for the connection.
