I think this may have been answered earlier do to mailing list oddities, but
just in case:

#tcpip_socket = false
to this:
tcpip_socket = true
You may also need to make some changes in pg_hba.conf to authorize the
connection from a particular host. Although this page is aimed at JDBC folk,
you'll find a description of setting up the database for tcp/ip connections
in it that applies to most situations:
