Re: can only connect to localhost is postgresql

I have a question:

Is it a legit thing to have 2 connection modes for the same host:

local        all                                           ident sameuser

local        all                                           ident newmode

I think in pg_hba you'd need to put the IP, rather than the computer name.

Have you added the appropriate host to the pg_hba.conf file?

When connecting to postgresql database via ODBC, I can only connect via localhost, I cannot connect via the computer name. I can ping the computer name and get a return. Postgres is started with the -i option.
Why can I not connect via computer name?
