It works fine there. However, InterClient and InterServer are the two
parts of the same product. InterClient JDBC driver is type 3 driver,
where InterClient is a pure java part on the client side talking to
the InterServer (native code), that resides on the same site as
database does. Be aware, that InterBase runs on wider range of
platforms than InterServer (I know only 3 of them: Windows, Solaris
and Linux, maybe it is possible to compile on others).

How do you want to integrate InterClient into JBuilder? If you add
interclient.jar to the classpath (jbuilder5/lib/ext, for example, or
edit the jbuilder5/bin/jbuilder.config), you will we able to use it
in IDE itself. I'm not aware of any JBuilder plugins that add special
InterClient funtionality there.

On Borland web-site you find compiled binaries. Or you can get
sources from the CVS on http://sourceforge.net/projects/firebird/ and
compile them. The version 1.6 as well as 2.0 work on Solaris 7/JDK
1.3.0_02, Win2k/JDK 1.3 and Potato Linux/JDK 1.3.0_02. I did not test
it on other platforms.

I would start from http://www.ibphoenix.com/, there are links to
other sites of the InterBase/Firebird community. Use the community
mailing lists to ask questions.
