Check for a firewall on the linux box.

Make sure you've restarted the database server to see the changes to
pg_hba.conf if the changes were made after the last start.

What does

nmap -p 5432 serverip

when run on the server say?

In addition to Scott's advice, you can turn connection logging on in
PostgreSQL and see if it is receiving a connection attempt.

Also in your odbc driver settings, there is the option to record a log-file
from that end.
