You're going to have to tell us the error message if you want any help.

Hi Bob,
Make sure you have the listen_addresses setting in postgresql.conf set to *

listen_addresses = '*'            # what IP address(es) to listen on;
                    # comma-separated list of addresses;
                    # defaults to 'localhost', '*' = all

Also make sure you have a entry in the pg_hba.conf file that allows your
remote host to connect, you can either specify a explicit host or you
can allow whole subnets access.

These files are located(at least on my PC :-) :C:\Program
Files\PostgreSQL\8.1\data

Hope this helps,

Thanks Tony I found it.

Can you give me a hint as to how to open the file??
