Ben,
All right. Now it works.
I tested your suggestion and found out from logfiles that my pg_hba.conf file
was quite corrupted ( i.e. invalid IP masks ) . I re-arranged the file, tested,
re-arranged again... and finally, it works.
Thanks to everyone who helped. I hope all of you didn't get too annoyed with all
these "PRESS ANYKEY" - "Hey, where's the anykey???" -styled questions of mine.
