You are probably using a Firebird 2.5 or earlier client library to
connect, which means it doesn't support wire encryption, and as that is
required by default, the connection is rejected (I thought it gave a
different error though, and I can't test it right now).

You either need to replace fbclient with the one for 3.0, or you need
to configure Firebird 3 to use the legacy authentication. Look at
