You do not say whether your program is trying to connect via TCP/IP or
netware.

When making a local connection to localhost, running ping, etc. you are
using TCP/IP local loopback, which simulates a TCP/IP network connection
from the local client. It does not require even a network card to be present.

If you are trying to connect from a remote client on a netware network, you
need two prerequisites:

1) that the database server be a version that is supported by netware.
2) that the client protocol be IPX/SX.

IBO supports the protocol, but it will work only if the network protocol is
supported by the database server and client. It is not supported by
Firebird or InterBase 6.
