At the risk of stating the obvious, also check to make sure Postmaster is listening on port 5432. To do this log in as root and run /sbin/fuser -vn tcp 5432. If postmaster is not listed it may only be running with unix sockets. This measn that you must pass the -i flag to postmaster when it starts up.

I was using Postgres 7.3.2 and later 7.3.3 on Red Hat 8 and everyhing
worked fine. Yesterday we upgraded to Red Hat 9 (with 7.3.3 shipped)

latest ODBC drivers. Has Red Hat broken something in this release. I
tried putting Postgres' RPMS instead of Red Hat's but it didn't work
either. Thx in advance.



Check your firewall; RedHat has locked things down even tighter with RH9. Check the hosts.(allow|deny) files too.

TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
