I'd start at the *simple* end. Can you connect from the
command line with psql? What other lines have you got
in pg_hba.conf?
Sameuser only makes sense if a) the user account name is
the same for both the os and postgres and b) ident is actually
set-up and running. Also, if you're working on the same machine
the IP stack will be trying to either use Unix sockets or the
loopback interface before trying the IP address.
