Hi,
I agree completely, this wiki is not a step-by-step description on how 
to set up a postgresql to be accessible from remote, so some questions 
are not answered.
But perhaps we can help. Can you tail /var/log/postgresql.log and post 
it here? And as already suggested, did you take a look at the 
/etc/hosts.allow?

And excuse my bad English.
