interbase 7 windows 95 compatibility

Does anyone know if interbase 7 actually runs at all on windows 95 or not?
Just wondered if the database does and they just dropped it from the list
since maybe the new ibconsole does not work but I don't use ibconsole - I
just third party admin apps anyways.Has anyone tried running interbase 7 on
windows 95 at all? If it is true that it does not work on win95 that is
another feature that firebird has over interbase 7 - windows 95
compatibility.

Client side or server side?

Win9x can hardly be called a serious server environment.

You can try it but it is not supported and IB7 was not tested on
Win95. Any non-NT version of Windows is, IMHO, inappropriate for a
database server.

Client side for database applications, and only local server for single-user
applications that are powered by a local interbase desktop engine. I just
want to know whether I can use this as a client for apps that I write or
not. I don't plan to have a real database server with multiple users running
on windows 95 but for single-user apps where interbase is basically
replacing paradox and the bde I'd like to know that I could still use
windows 95.
