Обсуждение: so much to learn
Hi, I have just installed RH 7.1 server on a 733MHz machine. I also have installed postgresql 7.1.3. I can run the examples from the postgres interactive tutorial but I can't figure out how to access the data from a remote computer. I have a laptop with RH 7.0 (all the network things work i.e. telenet,NFS) and want to be able to connect to the server to access the postgresql. I think I'm missing something or just don't understand what I'm suppose to do. What I really want to do is get Kylix to access the data from the laptop. I hoping someone knows how to access the postgres server via the network or point me to a website. TIA John

There is how to set up pg_hba.conf proper for tcp/ip connections By default, Postgre only allows local connections. If your laptop runs windows, read the chapter of ODBC too, else if your laptop is a Linux, you link your program with libpq. How to do that from Kylix I don't know, but I'm using Ada, and link with libpq, and it works fine. Read the chapter of libpq too if you'll use it, it contains a lot. (this was lots of reading :-) Björn
John- Look here to find out how to turn on TCP/IP access in postgresql.conf: http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/index.php?runtime-config.html (look for tcpip_socket Look here to find out how to authorize access in pg_hba.conf: http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/index.php?client-authentication.html#PG-HBA. CONF Once you've taken care of these two steps, you should be ready to go. If you have psql installed on the remote machine, you can use the -h option to test the connection. -Nick --------------------------------------------------------------------- Nick Fankhauser Business: nickf@doxpop.com Phone 1.765.965.7363 Fax 1.765.962.9788 doxpop - Court records at your fingertips - http://www.doxpop.com/ Personal: nick@fankhausers.com http://www.fankhausers.com > -----Original Message----- > From: pgsql-admin-owner@postgresql.org > [mailto:pgsql-admin-owner@postgresql.org]On Behalf Of John Fabiani > Sent: Wednesday, October 03, 2001 4:22 PM > To: pgsql-admin@postgresql.org > Subject: [ADMIN] so much to learn > > > Hi, > I have just installed RH 7.1 server on a 733MHz machine.
