At the risk of stating the obvious, also check to make sure Postmaster
is listening on port 5432. To do this log in as root and run /sbin/fuser
-vn tcp 5432. If postmaster is not listed it may only be running with
unix sockets. This measn that you must pass the -i flag to postmaster
when it starts up.
