How are you attempting to access the server? What error do you get?
Have you installed the postgresql84-server (or postgresql83-
server) port started the PostgreSQL server using launchctl or
"port load"?
Is the PostgreSQL server process running?

Ryan,
I've installed postgresql84-server @8.4.0 checked the PATH to make
sure that this /opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin is appended to the
start of the path.
typed 'psql' at cmd line
bash-3.2$ psql
psql: FATAL: database "donfox" does not exist
Previously I had installed 'PostgreSQLforMac' but it has been
removed and it installs in under /Library.

Is the server running locally and accepting
connections on Unix domain socket "/tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
The port selected was 5432.
I used the "port load".
I've never used PostgreSQL myself so I'm not sure what to suggest.
But I was hoping your answers would help someone who knows about
PostgreSQL help you further. I am sending this reply back to the
mailing list. Remember to use Reply All so your reply goes to the
list too, not just to the individual.
It would still be good to know if the PostgreSQL server process is
actually running. For example, is it shown in Activity Monitor? If
not, is there a PostgreSQL log file, and if so is there anything
relevant in it?
