I only can say that it works fine here with Firebird
1.5.1 Classic on Windows XP using IBOConsole, except
getting the server log and adding users, but I'm
running the 1.5.1 Classic instance on port 3040, so
I don't know whether this might be a problem.

Regarding user security. There is a pitfall with
Classic, even when using GSEC, because you need
to specify the security database using the TCP/IP
loopback protocol.

I don't have a solution, but some more questions. ;-)

- As there was an old gds32.dll. Did you completely
deinstall Firebird 1.0 before installing Firebird 1.5?

- Are you running Firebird on a different port than
3050?

- Are there several (different) versions of gds32.dll
on your computer?
