Hello!

Last day I installed the Postgrest SQl-Database successful on my
LINUX-Server.
The Database runs fine, and all tests, which are included with the source
("/src/test") have possitive result.
 The Access-List for the Postmaster has also been checked, that everybody in
the wan can access the SQl-Server via TCPIP
But it is still impossbile to get any connection from Windows NT to the
SQl-Server. the ODBC-Client returns: "Server 192.168.1.101 could not be
connected  - No connection possible to port 5432"
I also checked, that the Postmaster Process is running on port 5432 and
localy on the mashine everything works fine(using psql)

What to do???
(how can I for instance with an second LINUX-Mashine check, that the
Postmaster is available from Remote??)

Thankyou in advance!


Oliver!

Did you include the "-i" switch when starting the postmaster? It
enables TCP/IP connections since the postmaster only uses UNIX
domain sockets per default.

Try to open a telnet session from your NT workstation to the machine
hosting the PostgreSQL server, a least you should see something like:

frog# telnet frog 5432
Trying ?.?.?.?...
Connected to frog.
Escape character is '^]'.

EInvalid packet length
Connection closed by foreign host.

Olaf
