Problem connecting to DB server on home network

[jwisotsky]

I have installed PostgreSQL on my desktop and I'm trying to get my laptop to be able to connect to it. I previously had the PostgreSQL DB on my laptop and it worked fine. I was able to backup the DB and restore it on the desktop.

I changed the postgresql.conf file to the following
#listen_addresses = "*"

and I added the following line to pg_hba.conf

# host all all 192.168.1.103 trust

192.168.1.103 is the ip of the laptop.

If I try to add the remote DB using pgAdminIII, I get the following error. "Error connecting to the server: could not connect to the server: Connection refused (0x0000274Dx10061)
Is the server running on host "192.168.1.100" and accepting TCP/IP connections on port 5432?


I have disabled my firewall but this doesn't seem to help.

Anyone have any other ideas for me to try?

Thanks,

Jeremy

Does your log file tell you anything?
