To be able to log in with pgAdmin, you have to configure the postgres server to listen in a TCP socket. To do this, you have to edit its configuration file (postgresql.conf), located probably in the postgresql installation directory (not sure as I don't use windows, might be slightly different). You just have to add a single line listen_addresses = '*' then restart the service and pgAdmin should be able to log in. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
