This procedure work fine on Mandrake 7.2 with the TAR file

tar xfv InterBaseCS_LI-V6.0.tar
./install /tmp/InterBaseCS_LI-V6.0.tgz

Linux Mandrake par d�faut charge ses daemons uniquement via xinetd (et non
plus inetd) au boot, le service tcp gds_db n'est donc pas initialis�. Il
faut configurer manuellement le service pour xinetd :

Proc�dure : cr�er un fichier ibase dans le r�pertoire /etc/xinetd.d/ et y
placer la d�finition de service suivante :

create a file ibase in  /etc/xinetd.d/ :

cd /etc/xinetd.d

vi ibase


# Interbase service definition
service gds_db
{
 socket_type  = stream
 wait   = no
 user   = root
 log_on_failure   += USERID
 server   = /usr/local/sbin/gds_inet_server
}

after, restart 'xinetd'
