I thought you might be correct, Tom, but I double-checked the postgresql.conf file and listen_addresses = "*". I had
forgottento look to see if netstat reported:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:5432 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
But even with that established, the pg_basebackup using:
/usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/pg_basebackup -D - -h 127.0.0.1 -Ft -z -c fast -l hourly.backup > backup_file.gz or
/usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/pg_basebackup -D - -h 127.0.0.1 -U postgres -Ft -z -c fast -l hourly.backup > backup_file.gz
are still failing with:
pg_basebackup: could not connect to server: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for replication connection from host
"127.0.0.1",user "postgres", SSL off
The line from the pg_hba.conf file currently reads:
host replication postgres 127.0.0.1/32 trust
I really don't see where the problem is, and I know I've done a reload after every change in the pg-hba.conf.

thatpostgresql is not listening on that port for 127.0.0.1.
