Thread: PostgreSQL on Guest Host (VMWare)

PostgreSQL on Guest Host (VMWare)

From
"ON.KG"
Date:
Hi!

Description:
VMware 4.0
Main host is WinXP Pro (on FAT32)
and Guest Host is WinXP Pro (on NTFS)

On Guest Host - PostgreSQL 8.0-beta2-dev3

From Main host i'm trying to connect to PostgreSQL to Guest host
But as a result i'm receiving next message:

Connection Refused (0x0000274D/10061)
Is the server running on host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and accepting TCP/IP
connections on port 5432? 

Tell me please, what is the problem?

Thanx

Give the IP Address of your connecting client in the pg_hda.conf file
and restart postgres.

Thanks !

I hope you're running the guest with fully preallocated virtual disks.
Any FAT inconsistency caused by a system crash could destroy your entire
guest otherwise.

Windows XP has some basic firewall functionality. Could it be that this
is blocking inbound access on the Guest side?
