Failed how, exactly? The netstat output shows that the postmaster is
listening for connections from anyplace, so you have listen_addresses
set properly ... but there are at least two other levels where an
attempted connection might be blocked: kernel packet filtering, or the
contents of pg_hba.conf. What error message are you getting *exactly*?
