My connection string is:

c:\database\employee.gdb sysdba masterkey

Im an running IB 6.01 Server locally.

The following code at the command line works without problems:

     cd c:\programme\website\bin
     python
     Python 1.5.2 (#3, Mar  8 2000, 16:34:52) [C] on sunos5
     Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam
     >>> import gvib
     >>> db = 'c:\database\employee.gdb'
     >>> cn = gvib.connect(db, 'sysdba', 'masterkey')
     >>> cn.close()
     >>> ctrl-z RETURN

It's a type 1 database (IB5 compatible).

Any idea?
