That's likely to be a firewall issue.

Per default, event communication goes through random TCP ports. There is
a configuration parameter called RemoteAuxPort in firebird.conf, which
allows to define a constant TCP port for event communication. While this
was only support for SuperServer, you are lucky, because with V2.5, this
also should/will work with Classic/SuperClassic Server.

So, change the value (and remove the leading #) for RemoteAuxPort to an
available TCP port and make sure that this port isn't blocked by firewalls.

Check with TCPView or Windows' Resource Monitor if event communication
goes through this single port.
