Hi

Server:='localhost';
Protocol:=cpLocal;

in IB_Connection1 does not open connection, raise "unavaliable database".
But in IBO 4.3a runs OK with the same version of Firebird (lastest 1.5)
SuperServer (threads).

if change to use TCP/IP then runs fine.
It s important to me, because cpLocal transferences so fast than use
loopback.
