A few questions:

* What Postgres version do you use?

* What error message do you get when connecting with your new user? I assume
  that you get an error when you say "unable to verify".

* How did you create that user? Was it CREATE USER[1] or createuser via command
  line? In case of CREATE ROLE[2] you must also specify attribute LOGIN which
  effectively is the same as CREATE USER. The login privilege must also be
  enabled when creating roles via pgAdmin.[3]

* What does your pg_hba.conf[4] look like? You must configure the right
  databases, usernames, and client addresses before connecting.
