It was about some firewall rules setup by the system administrator.
Thanks

Hello Guys,
I have a database server and I have created another replica of it on another machine. The new replica is running fine locally, but I can not access it from another clients, the pg_hba.conf file is the same as the original database server.
when I try to connect to the server I get
psql: could not connect to server: Connection timed out Is the server running on host "xxx" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
I can access the original server from the client I am trying to access the replica, So, I think the problem is not related to postgresql conf. Certainly I can access the replica using ssh and I pinged it and every thing is fine. I am wondering what are the reasons that might cause this problem.
