I am fairly sure my pg_hba file is correct.  Here is what I have under IP4 
connections:

# IPv4 local connections:
host    all         all         127.0.0.1/32          md5
host    all         all         10.0.0.0/8          md5

Is anything else required to access the database from a different machine 
running pgAdmin3?

Thanks for the response. I was able to get postgres user to connect to the 
remote database by using the 'alter user' command from within psql.  However, I 
am unable to connect to the same server with a different user.  I created a 
generic user called pgAdmin and used the command:

Have you checked your pg_hba.conf file in your PostgreSQL server (if you have 
access to it)?
Maybe it's not allowed to connect remotely as a regular user but postgres.

Best regards
