Seems pretty normal if you don't want to allow connections from other machines and you have two connections from processes on the same machine. What this shows is that PostgreSQL is accepting connections only on the local loopback IP (unless you left something else for this port number out). It shows two connections to PostgreSQL from processes on that machine. Each connection shows twice -- once to show the user end of the connection, and once to show the server end of the connection. (If you were accepting connections from a other machines, you would only see the server side of those connections to PostgreSQL.) -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
