On a windows machine ?
The default should be c:\WINNT on a W2k machine

The Firebird install SHOULD have updated the services file, but if not,
then
gds_db 3050/tcp
may need adding. But I think the newer versions of Firebird do not
ACTUALLY need the entry. The next problem may be firewall, or a missing
'localhost' entry in hosts?
(services and hosts are normally in c:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc on a
default W2k setup - at least MS do use \etc\ to store the network stuff,
it used to just be in with everything else)
