Hi Chris, I can connect to the server locally with PgAdmin using localhost: 5432 192.168.2.99: 5432 127.0.0.1 : 5432 As for the Windows event logs they are all fine. The server logs. Look OK except for %LOG: invalid length of startup packet which could have been when I was trying to telnet in. What is very interesting is the following from the Status log I have three connections now, all from my local machine, local host, 127.0.0.1 and 192.168.2.99 and what is very interesting is the following from the Status log is the client column. 192.168.2.99:3321 127.0.0.1:3237 127.0.0.1:3223 Which is telling me that it is using different outgoing ports. Which means it will probably be a problem with the firewall as I think I set both incoming and outgoing to 5432. Will have to go and see if changing the outgoing to any makes a difference. Will reports back soon.

Anything in the postgres logs or windows event logger? Can you manually telnet to that? Try - from the postgres server back to itself (127.0.0.1 5432) - from the postgres server to it's ip (2.99) - from another machine It still sounds like it's firewall related. -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
