Thanks for your reply, I read your blog. Only what i need connect to
firebird from Windows.

I don't use windows but my guess is you need devkit from rails installer 

also the firebird headers 

http://railsinstaller.org/ 

ps: on windows usually it's easier to install ubuntu in a virtualbox and work from there 

I will try to write some steps for the railsinstalller+devkit installations and firebird
