Jay,

I've just installed once FB CS on linux, so maybe I am not pointing you
in the right direction :-(

look on /etc/xinetd.d/firebird

you have something similar to this:
# default: on
# description: FirebirdSQL server
#
# Be careful when commenting out entries in this file.
# Active entry should be first as some scripts
# (CSchangeRunUser.sh in particular) use sed scripting
# to modify it.
service gds_db
{
disable = no
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = firebird
# These lines cause problems with Windows XP SP2 clients
# using default firewall configuration (SF#1065511)
# log_on_success += USERID
# log_on_failure += USERID
server = /usr/local/firebird/bin/fb_inet_server
}

at the top you see a line disable = no

try restarting xinetd with
/etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart


after that look the output from netstat to see if you see anything
listening on port 3050

netstat -an | grep 3050
