Hi all,

After wasting about half a day I thought I'd ask you for help.
I have Fedora Core 3 box that came with postgresql 7.4.6 installed.
Locally I have no problems connecting to the database and running psql.
I need to set up an ODBC connection from my Windows box.
Here is what I've done:

1.      In postgresql.conf 
                tcpip_socket = true
(By the way does this eliminate the need to start postgres with -i option, see 
item 3 below ?)

 
2.      in pg_hba.conf
        
        local   all     all                     trust
        host    all     all     10.1.9.0                255.255.255.0   trust
        host    all     all     127.0.0.1       255.255.255.255 trust

The ip address of the windows box is 10.1.9.15 and ip address of the server is 
10.1.9.27

3.      in /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql

        su -l postgres -s /bin/sh -c"/usr/bin/pg_ctl -D $PGDATA -o '-i' -p 
/usr/bin/postmaster start > /dev/null 2>&1 "</dev/null
Note, I do have -i option.

4.  I ran netstat -na | grep 5432  and it tells me that postgres is listening 
on that port.

Every time I try to connect via ODBC from windows I get an error:
Could  not connect to the server
Could not connect to remote socket

I'd appreciate any help.
Thank you
NK
