"Connection refused" is a network-level error: your connection is never getting to the Postgres server. Double-check addresses, check network connectivity, check firewall settings. My first bet is you need to poke a hole in the server machine's firewall --- see iptables or local equivalent. Another possibility is that the server's listen_addresses setting only tells it to listen for local TCP connections not remote ones. You typically want listen_addresses set to "*" if you intend to allow remote connections. When you start getting complaints phrased along the lines of "no pg_hba.conf entry" then it'll be time to fix pg_hba.conf. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
