can't add connection to server in windowsXP using pgadminIII - Mailing list pgsql-novice

i changed the postgresql.conf file adding
listen_address = '*'  but it doesn't kick. also changd
the pg_hba.conf file adding "host template1 postgres
192.168.0.0/24 md5" but to no avail.

inasmuch as there was no data folder in the postgres
file i created the data folder and placed in them the
"posgresql.conf" and "pg_hba.conf" files.

i used the postgresql-8.0.0-rc2 windows installer
package for the pgadminIII.

here are my settings in the New server dialog box
under properties tab

Address: 192.168.0.1
Description: win32
Service:
Port 5432  SSL
InitialDB Template1
Username postgres
needpassword: unchecked
password:

after clicking ok the result is

an error has occured:

error connecting to the server: could not connect to
the server: No route host(0x00002751/10065). Is the
server running on host "192.168.0.1" and accepting
tctp/ip connections on port5432?

tsk. tsk. tsk. thanks for any help.
