It looks to me like postgres isn't actually running.
If it is running, you will need to check your startup script for it. To
allow TCP/IP connections to postgres you need to do one of the following:
1. If you run postgres using the 'postmaster' command, run it with '-i' as
a parameter.
2. I fyou run postgres using the 'pg_ctl' command, run it with the '-o
"-i"' parameter.
Read the man pages for either of these programs to learn more.

hi,
guys
My problem has been resolved... I have installed
PostgresSQL 7.1 and that was a tar ball. I just followed the steps in the INSTALL and bingo.... everything worked fine....
