Re: possible Bug in windows version ?

If you're running one of Windows XP SP2 or Windows Server 2003, the Windows Firewall will be blocking the connection.
If you have the "Windows Firewall" option in Control Panel, check it's disabled, then try again.

If that cures your problem, add an exception in for port 5432 before you turn the firewall back on.

Hi Paul, All,

My host   pg_hba.conf:
host     all         all         127.0.0.1/32                 md5
host    all         all          192.168.1.1/32          trust
host    all         all          192.168.1.2/32          trust

and postgresql.conf:
listen_addresses = '*'       
port = 5432               
max_connections = 100   

the 192.168.1.1 is also the server IP, and I am tryning to connect from the 192.168.1.2 with pgExlorer and pgAdmin  but I get a message :
"Cannot connect to Server. Connection timeout . Chech if the server is running and accepting TCP connections on 5432"

I will try to setup the database and see if this happens also the binary distribution without  the installer.

Thx
George

In putting in the above line did you replace the host line with address
"127.0.0.1/32"? If so, that's probably your problem - it needs the 127*
line. Is postmaster listening on the default port (5432) or did you
change that during install? (Can check that in the postgresql.conf file
in the same place as pg_hba.conf)

How are you trying to connect? (pgAdminIII, some other program using the
ODBC driver?) What error are you getting?

NB: I get access denied if I put my servers IP address into the
pg_hba.conf file and comment out the existing 127 address line. Local
connections would not go out through the network and would thus not be
seen by PG as coming from your 192/168 address.
