So, the windows machine can't get to port 5432 on the bsd machine. The problem can be anything from a firewall (exxternal) to the app not running on the host machine. Does that same string work on the bsd box? > I searched in severa places, one of them is: > http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/server-start.html > http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/auth-pg-hba-conf.html > http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/static/runtime-config-connection.html > http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/postgres-allow-remote-access-tcp-connection.html > in addition to the manual, > > I do not have the same problem when I try a Windows to Windows connection. Of course, the problem is likely that the bsd box isn't answering on that port for whatever reason. > I already placed the "*" in the listen_addresses option and "host all all > 10.10.90.0/24 trust". Where did you change this? On the bsd box or the windows box (should be bsd) If on bsd did you then restart the server on bsd? -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
