This was answered on the IBO list: gds32.dll is default with IBO, you'll
have to make a change to the IBO code to make it load fbclient.dll.

It's ok. But, ideally (I think!), you should instead set the attributes
protocol (pcTCP_IP)
server (hostname)
path (drive:\dir\dbname.fdb)
If you're using the alias feature of Fb, the path should be set to the
alias. (This is also an IBO topic!)
