This problem is coming from your server's TCP/IP configuration, which is not controlled by Firebird in any way. SOMETHING has configured the TCP/IP transport to limit the allowed number of connections to < 64. Network admins can use TCP/IP limits to prevent Denial of Service attacks.

Ask your network administrator about it. It might be firewall software that has applied this limit. The error string containing "...exceeded...63 simultaneous connections..." is a recognisable error message from the nod32 firewall that has been installed with the default settings.

There is a useful paper on the subject of limiting TCP/IP connections, with several handy links:
