Hi,

No, you don't need to do anything on the Windows box, however on the server,
you need to edit $PGDATA/pg_hba.conf and add an entry to allow your PC
access to the template1 database:

E.g.

host         all         192.168.1.2     255.255.255.255         password

This line would grant your workstation access to all databases with password
authentication.
