Re: Canot access PostgreSQL via psql -h (Vmware Fusion)

Hi! Try to check the iptables. If you don't need a firewall just disable it. As root, try the following:

    service iptables status
    service iptables stop

    To disable it from starting at boot time, use:
    chkconfig iptables off

    Regards,

    Anderson Lunz.
