This seems to indicate that your Postgres authentication method is "ident",
rather than "trust" or "password". It needs an ident server to be running
on the client computer, to authenticate that the user making the connection
is indeed who he claims to be. That is, on your NT.

Either choose a different authentication method, or run an ident server on
the NT (is there such a beast?).
