Subject Can't connect over the internet with TDataset query.
Author rogervellacott
I successfully connect to Firebird (V1.53) on a server using a
TIBODatabase component via VPN over the internet.

I can then successfully prepare and open a TIB_Cursor.

But if I try the same with TIBOQuery, with an identical query to the
TIB_Cursor, it freezes with a permanent hourglass.

The same behaviour occurs both at runtime and design time, and I have
tested on more than one server, so I suspect a problem with the
TIBOQuery component.

Any illumination or suggestions?
