PostgreSQL listens on port 5432 by default. So at the time the perp
is connected, you can do:
netstat -an | grep ':5432.*ESTABLISHED'
and get a list of every IP address connected to your server at the
time.
This works for netstat under Linux, at the very least. I expect the
output format under other flavors of Unix is close enough for the
above to work, but you may have to adjust it if your netstat output is
too different.
This won't tell you which one is the 'Admin' connection, but it may
help you to track down the perp anyway...
