Re: Problem to connect from host via JDBC ...

Conclusion of all these is that the /etc/init.d/postresql start command
contains now :
    su -l postgres -c "/usr/bin/pg_ctl -D ${PGDATA} -p
/usr/bin/postmaster -o '-i' start" >/dev/null 2>&1

The JDBC url is now with the following structure :
        conn = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:postgresql://" + <HOST> +
"/" + <DB_NAME>, <user>,  <pwd>  );

However & "contrary" to what is specified on Nick's site I did not need to
set the "tcpip_socket" to "1".
As the exerpt from the "postgresql.conf" shows here below :
<snip>
#
#       Connection Parameters
#
#tcpip_socket = false
#ssl = false

#max_connections = 32 # 1-1024

#port = 5432
#hostname_lookup = false
#show_source_port = false

#unix_socket_directory = ''
#unix_socket_group = ''
#unix_socket_permissions = 0777

#virtual_host = ''

#krb_server_keyfile = ''
</snip>

Will need to read more about that in the future :-))

Tx very much to the precious help !

Thomas,
Thomas,
