Re: Problem to connect from host via JDBC ...

Thomas-

The port is different from http. If you have psql installed on you machine,
a simple test would be to type:

psql -h<hostname> <database name>

If you can connect and run a few quesries, then you know that the host
machine is accepting connections.
