Use TIBOSecurityService or IBX.TIBSecurityService, set connection params
(server, user, pass), connect, call DisplayUsers and iterate over
UserInfo[userIndex] (the number of available UserInfos is in
UserInfoCount). Probably you have to connect to the FB service as a user
with the RDB$ADMIN priviledges, but I'm not sure about it (although that
would seem reasonable).
I personally chose IBX.TIBSecurityService 'cause it allows to set the
'password_enc' in Params (useful when passwords may contain non-ASCII
characters). If this isn't a concern for you, you can use either of them
(the API is very similar).
