OK, I commented out the tcp/ip option in hba.conf, left away all that
follows the "sdbc:postgres:" string but the result is always the same.

I did that: no different result ;(
Having a closer look at the postgres.log (and, maybe a better
understanding of what it says) I noticed that it doesn't record at all
the attempts I'm doing from OOo.
AAMOF, when I connect from the console ($ psql mydb), the postgres.log
registers the successfull connection with the row:

2005-03-19 01:25:00 [4325] LOG:  connection authorized: user=ennio database=mydb
                                                        ^^^^^^^^^^
which follows the various rows (two for each of my databases) saying:

2005-03-18 01:24:17 [5426] LOG:  connection received: host=[local] port=
2005-03-18 01:24:17 [5426] LOG:  connection authorized: user=postgres 
database=odontolinux
                                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^    
So it seems that the sdbc driver is "not even knocking at postgres'
door" !

Any further suggestion will be appreciated.
Regards,
        Ennio.
