I am unfamiliar with these commands. Is this a postgres configuration file? Is this something I just do once or something I leave on to hopefully catch it when the issue occurs? Is this something to do on the DB machine or the ETL machine? FYI: It's no problem. I suggest that you run wireshark with a capture filter to try to show *why* the connections are failing. I think the capture filter might look like: (icmp || (tcp[tcpflags] & (tcp-rst|tcp-syn|tcp-fin)!=0)) && host 10.64.17.211 With the "host" filtering for the IP address of the *remote* machine. You could run that on whichever machine is more convenient and leave it running for however long it takes for that error to happen. You'll be able to save a .pcap file for inspection. I suppose it'll show either a TCP RST or an ICMP. Whichever side sent that is where the problem is. I still suspect the issue isn't in postgres. > - My ETL machine is on 10.64.17.211 > - My DB machine is on 10.64.17.210 > - Both on Windows Server 2012 R2, x64 These network details make my theory unlikely. They're on the same subnet with no intermediate gateways, and communicate directly via a hub/switch/crossover cable. If that's true, then both will have each other's hardware address in ARP after pinging from one to the other. -- Justin
