Re: Can not connect to database in Workgroup-Net on Windows-XP

Firstly it would be helpful to say what error you're getting on the
client side.
At a quick guess, I would say it's because you've got 2 "0.0.0.0"
declarations in your pg_hba.conf - you only need the one - like this:

host all all 0.0.0.0/0 md5

Regards,

Andy.
