hello, most crucial information is missing, like: - your operating system - your postgresql version - on which computer is your database server running - is your database server running But most likely your problem is that you did not configure PostgreSQL to listen to TCP/IP-requests. Which again makes it most likely that you are using a way outdated PostgreSQL Version (that ist < 8.x) Please update to 8.3.1, and adjust your postgresql.conf, parameter "listen_addresses (string)" accordingly.
