sounds liek there's more than just the entry you gave us before...
My pg_hba.conf file has the following line: host all all 192.168.0.1/24 trust
which, btw, is probably wrong. with a mask of /24 (which is equivalent to 255.255.255.0, eg 24 '1's), the IP part would have to be 192.168.0.0 (as in this context, thats the network number). your last error, /255 is under no conditions a valid CIDR mask length.
