You cannot use the postgres account without some tweaks, Sorry I don't remember where I found this info - somewhere in the pgadmin install docs.
 
Create a new superuser with a password, add connectivity to the pg_hba.conf file if needed and pgadmin should work fine

Take a look here:















http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/client-authentication.html









Basically, the password isn't set yet.  You may or may not need to set







one depending on how you configure pg_hba.conf
