Re: connection problems

Netstat is a separate program that shows the status of your network
interfaces. It should come with your operating system. On Windows, you
can get to it via the command console. Typing "netstat -ab" at the
command prompt should generate a list of the ports on which your server
is listening, the ports that have a connection established, and the
program bound to that port. For the port that PostgreSQL is supposed to
be listening on, you can check that it is actually doing so.

Thanks Tino. But what do you mean by "netstat -tln" i use the pgadmin.

Shavonne

Did you restart the postmaster after setting listen_addresses?
Does netstat -tln display the appropiate port listening on
*:5432 (or
whatever your port number is)?

Tino.
