You shouldn't do that.  Edit postgresql.conf (in /var/lib/pgsql/data) to do
this -- uncomment the tcpip_socket line and set it to true.  This is
documented in /usr/share/doc/postgresql-7.2.1/README.rpm-dist

Did you make a copy of your previous pg_hba.conf?  It gets overwritten during
initdb.  You will need to edit it.
