Hi all,

Having a commun problem with pgaccess & Delphi ( postgresql pascal unit from
nico + windows dll) when trying to connect Linux Postgresql server from windows
95 client.

Maybe OS or configuration problem but I can't explain what's append.

- Server : Postgresql 6.5.2 on a linux box
- Windows 95 client : Pgaccess or Delphi with postgresql pascal unit

Trying to connect to intranet host : 192.168.0.25 ==> sultan.intranet.org
(Linux Postgresql server)
===
Error with Pgaccess : Field host to : 192.168.0.25
Connection to Database failed; unknow hostname : 192.168.0.25
====
Error with Delphi : pghost := '192.168.0.25';        { host name of the
backend server } 
Connection to Database failed; unknow hostname : 192.168.0.25

NO PROBLEM IF THE PGHOST is set TO 'sultan' OR 'sultan.intranet.org'
DNS server seems to works fine...

Thanks for help in advance.

Emmanuel.
