Once you putty into the box (assuming you are user postgres, or whoever
owns the postmaster), you
can psql into the database eg psql myDB
You don't need to putty into the box to use pgAdmin, you just tell
pgAdmin the ip address, user (postgres),
and password (unless it's trusted). This works as long as you've allowed
access from your remote ip address
eg in /data/pg_hba.conf you might have something like this
host all all 24.233.244.45 255.255.255.255 trust
this line trusts all users connecting from 24.233.244.45, so for example
pgAdmin could gain db access.
