Interbase and ADO.NET

I'm having some problems on interfacing Interbase 6 OpenSource with ADO.NET.

I get odbc driver from Easysoft and set up a system DSN.

Now, if I use "Server Exploren" in the .NET IDE, I can verify and test the
connection.

The problem arise when I try to make the connection.

What connection class have I to use (OleDbConnection, SqlConnection...)?
What is the correct connection string to use?
What have I to do if I do not want to use DSN connection?
I found (on the net) some DSN-less connections strings, but they do not seem
to work:
oConn.Open "Driver={Easysoft IB6 ODBC};" & _
           "Server=myMachineName;" & _
           "Database=myMachineName:C:\Home\Data\Mydb.gdb;" & _
           "Uid=myUsername;" & _
           "Pwd=myPassword"
What is the type of oConn?

Regards

Lucio
