Have installed fresh firebird v 1.5.08 on a couple of pc's and
IBOConsole will not connect to the server. Also my applications
usually, at least by design, were able to connect to the database in
either tcp/alias or via direct path.
eg I could supply localhost:MyDatabase to my TIbDatabase.dataasename
and connection will be fine.
Also I could supply c:\mydata\mydatabase.fdb to
TIbDatabase.DatabaseName and connection would be okay as well.

On these fresh installations Only the Alias connection seems to work.
Any reasons, ideas?
