Hi

Would you not have to start the postmaster with the "-i" switch to allow TCP/IP connections to the DB?

 Well, I have managed to get PG running. I had to copy the file boot/zeta/etc/hosts-sample,  save as 'hosts',  and add the line:
 
127.0.0.1  localhost
 
 Now PG starts reliably. I still can't connect with phpPgAdmin, but a quick trip through the archives of that group shows that to be a very common problem, with no concrete solution.
