Are you starting your database with pg_ctl or by typing postmaster by
hand? If you're using pg_ctl, edit your $PGDATA/postgresql.conf file to
have tcpip_socket = true, and edit $PGDATA/pg_hba.conf to allow your
machine to connect. Look for a line that looks like this:

host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.0 trust

and edit accordingly, then restart your server.

If you're starting postmaster by hand, I'd recommend switching to using
pg_ctl. Generally running postmaster by hand is done by people more
expert at running postgresql than folks not sure why they can't get
TCP/IP connections to work. :)
