Host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5 This entry is there in configuration file already.So no probs..I can connect. But..Just i want to know why it is connecting if i mention just localhost and why it giving error if i mention the IP of it(the same m/c's) instead of local host. Have u seen the image i sent in last mail? What is wrong if i mention the localhost IP instead of localhost in my connection information? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy Shellam" <andy.shellam@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "'sandhya'" <sandhyar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: <pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, March 20, 2006 3:48 PM Subject: RE: [ADMIN] reg:conninfo > You should be able to connect if you tell your application to connect to > 127.0.0.1, and put > > Host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5 > > In your pg_hba.conf file - this is a system default loopback IP for clients > on the same machine. > > Why is it causing you such a problem using localhost as opposed to an IP > address?
