It is not necessary to restart the computer. As the Postgres superuser(usually postgres) run the command pg_ctl with the appropriate parameter. In the case of changes to pg_hba.conf it would be pg_ctl reload. This tells the Postgres server to reload its conf files so it can take advantage of the changes. Some conf parameters need a pg_ctl restart as they are only read at start up of the server. The comments in the *.conf files help you with this (especially in newer versions pf Postgres). Also look at for more information: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/runtime-config.html http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/client-authentication.html As to your particular problem I am going to need some more information. I went back through the thread and cannot see any specific error messages. What exactly is "the same problems"?
