It did indeed. The important part, though, was realizing that postgresql
doesn't listen for IP packets by default.
The -i switch to postmaster isn't a practical solution on my system,
though, because the startup script uses pg_ctl, and -i isn't a legal
option. There's a param in the config file called tcpip_socket - the
first one in the distributed postgresql.config - that needs to be set to
true. It's all in TFM, once I knew to look for it.
Thanks very much.
Postgresql isn't like the other servers I've played with on Linux. I
have a feeling I'm at the bottom of a very high and very steep learning
curve...
