Hello
I installed PostgreSQL 8.0 on Windows and I can connect from localhost
only. How can I configure the server to allow connection from other
machines?
Thank you

Under
Start-> Programs->PostgreSQLXX->Configuration files
postgresql.conf
pg_hba.conf
Are the 2 files I modified. Please be aware my settings are for a dev
box and are WIDE OPEN AS SHOWN HERE this might allow alot more people
connect than you want.
postgresql.conf
# - Connection Settings -
listen_addresses = '*' # what IP address(es) to listen on;
# comma-separated list of addresses;
# defaults to 'localhost', '*' = all
port = 5432
max_connections = 100
pg_hba.conf
# TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 md5
host all all 192.168.10.1/24 md5
# IPv6 local connections:
