If you have the classic version there is no server executable - at least
nothing called ibserver. Classic works with inetd (or xinetd) which
listens for requests on port 3050 (usually) and launches a process from
there. I can't get to a linux box right now, but if you look in
/etc/inetd.conf you will see the name of the process launched.
