After switching to "root", i was able to connect to the sample employee.fdb 
database. Local account is not successful. I am thinking this is caused by the 
missing "fb_lock_mgr". Any help would be appreciated.

root@Tucker:/home/baskint/fbemded# bin/isql -user sysdba -pass masterkey 
employee.fdb
Database:  employee.fdb, User: sysdba
SQL> show tables;
       COUNTRY                                CUSTOMER                       
       DEPARTMENT                             EMPLOYEE                       
       EMPLOYEE_PROJECT                       JOB                            
       PROJECT                                PROJ_DEPT_BUDGET
