If you are refering to the example databases loaded with firebird they
are in /opt/interbase/examples. But you'll have to tell me what the DBD
is.:-). It's some borland database thing isn't it?

username/password depends, if your testing then sysdba + password in
/opt/interbase/SYSDBA.password should work. Otherwise you 'll need to
read the interbase documentation and set up some users
(www.ibphoenix.com /www.interbase2000.org both have some pointers).

Probably the question to ask is what version/flavour of linux are you
running. Im supprised it's asking for libdl.so.1, I'd have thought the
latest versions would have gone for libdl.so.2.

You can check using:

ldd /opt/interbase/bin/isql

Here's what I get :
golem:~> ldd /opt/interbase/bin/isql
libgds.so => /usr/lib/libgds.so (0x40021000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40191000)
libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x40195000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x401c2000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x401e0000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
