Re: Can´t connect but listen address and pg_hba configured correctly

Did you purposely change the default port? Are you specifying the
change in pgadmin? If the pg_hba.conf file is the problem, pgadmin will
tell you with a message like:

FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "IPADDRESS", user "USER", database
"DATABASE", SSL ON/OFF

Are you getting a similar message or is the connection timing out?
