The JDBC driver can only use TCP/IP (since Java doesn't support Unix
sockets) but you can certainly se it on the same machine. You just
need to start the postmaster with '-i' to allow TCP connections. The
default pg_hba.conf only allows connections on the local interface
(127.0.0.1) so it's reasonably secure.
