Is there a firewall in place on the server side (perhaps that you didn't set up)? Some distributions are fairly "locked down" out of the box and you have to specifically open ports you want to use.
Cheers,

Dear all:
I searched the web and all what I tried did not work. So please bear with me:
I trying to access a database on a linux machine from a windows computer using SQuirrel:
postgres version 9.4.5
Squirrell version 3.7
However, I am getting the error message on SQuirrel:
Connection to host:5432 refused. Check that the hostname and port are correct and that the postmaster is accepting TCP/IP connections
This is what I have done:
a) Changed postgresql.conf: listen_addresses = '*'
b) edited pg_hba.conf: host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
