I am glad that it is working correctly.  Also, I also have had
problems with connections when trying to use pg_pconnect() while
specifying a remote database host.  This is true with several of
the PHP *_pconnect() functions that I have tested.  So my rule
of thumb is use pg_pconnect() only if the database is located on
the localhost, otherwise use pg_connect().
