Thanks Ben,
It's NOT working. Already an entry similar to this is there
host all all 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 md5
And I added the following entry also in the hba file and restarted PG Serverhostssl all all 192.168.1.0/16 md5
And tried to connect using server computer name instead of IP address. I get an error, when I try to add and test and ODBC entry
Any thing else I need to do ?
Happiness Always

Your connection string will work as long as there is a DNS entry for PGServer.
Your pg_hba.conf will however need to have an IP address/netmask. So if you are connecting from within your local network, you can put something like:
hostssl all all 192.168.0.0/16 md5
Hth?

Hello,
Using PostgreSQL 11
Currently connecting PostgreSQL database from our Powerbuilder application using the IPAddress as Server Name through ODBC driver. Would like to know whether we can connect naming the computername instead of IP Address ? If yes, what info to be entered in pg_hba.config file ?
My connection string is :"ConnectString='Driver=PostgreSQL Unicode;Database=dbname;Server=192.168.1.21;Port=5432;UID=user;PWD=pass;',DisableBind=1"
Here Server is assigned with IP Address of the computer where PostgreSQL is installed. I think of doing it with "ConnectString='Driver=PostgreSQL Unicode;Database=dbname;Server=PGServer;Port=5432;UID=user;PWD=pass;',DisableBind=1"
Is it possible ?
