Sandhya,
If you use localhost you will be creating a UNIX domain socket. If you
use the IP address you will create a TCP/IP socket.
Did you try running with -i yet? It doesn't mean accept remote
connections, it means accept TCP/IP connection. Without it, you cannot
connect to an IP address ...

Thanks Robin.
What u said is right!
But my problem is i am not trying connecting from any remote client.
In my ConnectionInfo if i mention the host as,
host=localhost.The connection is successful.
But the same if i give my localsystem IP where my server is running..
host = 10.0.2.56(my localhost IP).
The Connection is failed.
Why is this so?Whether i need to give only localhost in my application (or)
why it is not accepting when i gave IP of the same system(When the entry of
this IP is already present in pg_hba.conf file)?

Try looking at the manual for the postmaster process ...
A simple way of achieving what you want is adding the -i option to the
postmaster command line which allows TCP/IP connections. Otherwise only
localhost can connect.
There are possibly other ways of configuring this same option, but we
use the -i on the command line to the postmaster process.
Hope this helps,
Robin

hi,
I am using postgres8.0.3 on windows.When i am compiling a small sample
i am facing problem in connection information.
I have given entry in my pg_hba.conf file:
host all all 10.0.3.67/32
md5
And in my application when i pass host in conninfo as,
host=10.0.3.67...It is not connecting..and throwing error like,
Is server running on 10.0.0.205..etc
But when i give as,
host=localhost..It is running fine.
After each change i am doing pg_reload.
What i need to do inorder to mention the IP in my application instead of
localhost?
Please tell me.
Thank you,
Sandhya

TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
