Thread: connection refused

connection refused

From
Bruce Hyatt
Date:
I've been over my pg_hba.conf and postgresql.conf files again and again, restarting after changes and I always get
08004connection refused when I try to connect through the postgresql jdbc from another machine. 

The user name I'm using works from the postgresql host and I have enabled IP/TCP connections to the database.

Anything else? Surely this is something obvious I'm overlooking.

Thanks,
Bruce Hyatt

Firewall not letting the connection through, maybe?
