OK, could connect this way.
Server config file here says
DatabaseAccess = Restrict /srv/firebird
so the path in OpenSUSE will be localhost:/srv/firebird/externtest.fdb

Thanks for this tests!

This path isn't available in normal way through the GUI of a user. So it
couldn't be fund by the database wizard, if I browse through my system. And
server will only be available in this path, which is also be set by the system
for all Firebird data files, which will connect to the server.

If we will offer this option also the connector to server database should
→ connect to localhost directly, means he must read the path for data from the
Firebird server (DatabaseAccess)
→ allow all user-management as it is possible through JDBC
→ must also connect to a server, which will allow to open files in Firebird
versions like Firebird 4.0

The internal driver will produce an error with Firebird 4 files. But the
internal databases won't be changed from Firebird 3 to Firebird 4. Databases,
which have been used by other people, should be also usable in future. So it
could be we need different drivers for the internal and the external server
database.

At this moment the only database, which could be created without problems,
using the wizard, is the simple external file. And this should be available
under "Create database", not under "Connect to an existing database".
