You need to add the database to your site-wide emboss.defaults file (or 
your own ~/.embossrc file).

We had a suggestion last week to generate the emboss.defaults lines in 
dbiblast - that will help you, but I don't expect to have time until the 
New Year.

The database definition will look like this:

DB ecoliaa [
   type: P format: ncbi method: blast
   dir: /user/claesson/data
   indexdir: /user/classon/data
   comment: "E.coli protein data"
  ]
