Re: trying to connect to pg from within a local network

~
 Well, I went:
~
 Start > Control Panel > Windows Firewall
~
 and it is: "off (not recommended)"
~
 Something I still am not sure about is how to:
~
 "Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster
is accepting TCP/IP connnections"
~
 There is nothing I can see in pg_hba.conf or postgres.conf that
relates to TCP/IP connnections and I think it is a pg thing, because
when I run tomcat on port 8080 on this box, I can telnet to it without
any problems
~
 Tomcat is using a pg-based JDBCRealm, that means it is connecting to
it without any problems
