Have you a line in your server's pg_hba.conf file allowing remote
connections by the role "postgres"? Something like:
host all postgres 192.168.1.25/24 md5
The configuration is well documented in the file itself, and also in the
PostgreSQL docs under "Client Authentication" (if memory serves).

My pg_hba.conf is:
# TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
local all all trust
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
# IPv6 local connections:
host all all ::1/128 trust
the same error get me it......

What you have here looks like the default pg_hba.conf that's created on installation - you haven't edited it at all, and so it's only allowing connections from the machine on which Postgres is running. If you want to allow user "postgres" to connect to all databases from, say, 192.168.1.25 with a netmask of 255.255.255.0, you need to add: host all postgres 192.168.1.25/24 md5 PgAdmin (or any other client) should then prompt for the password for user "postgres", and the password will be md5-encrypted before being passed over the wire.

I'm not sure that I understand you....do you mean that you removed the CONNECT permission from the postgres user to the database to which you want to connect? Can you describe *exactly* the steps you take, and the error messages you get back?
