Re: could not connect to server

Dear Andreas,
this is my pg_hba.conf file:
______________________________________________________
# TYPE  DATABASE    USER        IP-ADDRESS        IP-MASK
METHOD

# IPv4-style local connections:
host    all        all       127.0.0.1       255.255.255.255 trust
host    all        all       "my_netaddres".0       255.255.255.0 trust
#host    all       

# IPv6-style local connections:
#host    all         all         ::1
ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff        trust

# Using sockets credentials for improved security. Not available
everywhere,
# but works on Linux, *BSD (and probably some others)

local  all    all             ident   sameuser
__________________________________________________________
