I feel a little stupid because I know this is the exact same problem I had on my windows box. The problem is, I don't
knowhow I fixed it and I can't find the conversation in the archives. 

Hopefully someone here can help me (again).

I have postgreSQL up and running on my slackware linux box. I have pgAdmin III up and running on that same box. I
cannotget the two of them talking to one another. 

I can work on the databases through psql, but when I attempt to connect using pgAdmin, I get an error:


--- SNIP ---
An error has occured:

Error coknnecting to the server: coun not connect to server:
Connection refused Is the server running on host "127.0.0.1" and accepting  TCP/IP connections on port 5423?
--- SNIP ---


I know that on my windows box, it was a problem with the pg_hba.conf. There was a problem with the configuration there,
soI copied the windows pg_hba.conf over to my linux box. No change. Grr... 

I also tried starting the server with the -i option (which wasn't there originally). That didn't seem to help.

I'm not sure what the problem is. If someone has an idea of what I am doing wrong, let me know. I'm willing to start
fromscratch if I have to...
