The connection is refused and in the logfile on the Linux-machine is the following message: Unable to connect to Ident server on the host which is trying to connect to Postgres (IP address 212.52.7.241, Port 113). errno = Connection refused (111) In the PostgreSQL-homedir there is also a file odbcinst.ini. Because I didn't install PostgreSQL myself, I don't know why it's there and if this can cause the trouble. Thanks, Jelle. -------------------------------------------------------------- NEROC Publishing Solutions Jelle Ruttenberg De Run 1131, 5503 LB Veldhoven Phone : +31-(0)40-2586641 P.O.Box 133, 5500 AC Veldhoven Fax : +31-(0)40-2541893 The Netherlands E-mail : ruttenberg@neroc.nl --------------------------------------------------------------
